Partially Accepted

#21 — Any job' approach has alienated employers and undermined Jobcentre engagement efforts.

#16 — Previous 'ABC' employment support approach has failed to deliver sustainable work or good outcomes.

#3 — Government failed to address concerns over regional economic impact of South East airport expansion.
