As the Deputy has previously been advised with respect to plans for 2013 I have published a comprehensive set of performance targets, set out on a on a quarter by quarter basis, on the Department's website .

I intend to publish my Department's performance against these targets starting in July of this year with the results of the first quarter available before close of business on 28 June 2013. Performance against quarter two targets will be measured at the end of quarter two.

It is not proposed to publish selectively on performance against the Pathways to Work targets prior to the formal publication of the relevant data.
