Ms Anne Vaughan:

If the Deputy has particular concerns, we will certainly have a look at them. It must all be dealt with locally. We have too many schemes and they all came to us in different ways, through various amalgamations, and the plan is to have a simpler structure. That is no secret. We published our review of activation schemes last year and the plan is to have schemes that are focused in the activation space and more in the social services space because we recognise that it is not possible in all schemes to have progression at the level we would like, be it for geographical or other reasons. We are quite keen to differentiate. Within the community employment scheme, my colleagues are looking at particular strands or programmes. An obvious strand would be drugs schemes leading to a different type of progression such as trying to get started. As we are trying to look at all of these, we are open to receiving any feedback the committee might have.
