Changes to Steps to Work Statistical Bulletins-summary of 2012 consultation

Prior to consultation, Steps to Work programme destination statistics were publishedquarterly and based solely on DEL data. Analytical Services proposed to publish Steps to Work programme destination statistics twice a year based on DEL, DSD and HMRC data. Statistics on starts, occupancy, activities on leaving Step 1, and Contract Management Areas will not be affected by this change and therefore Analytical Services will continue to publish these quarterly.
