Mr. John McKeon:

No, it is not a contract but what we call a personal progression plan. People are asked to do that whether they are working with an Intreo case officer from our Department, a JobPath case officer or a local employment services case officer. In every case we expect the jobseeker to sign up to a personal progression plan.
