The DWP has announced it will not take forward previously proposed Welfare Reform Drug Recovery pilots, but instead look at other ways in which Government departments can work together to provide the help and support people need to overcome drug and alcohol dependency and get back to work.
These announcements follow yesterday’s report by the Social Security Advisory Committee (SSAC) which found the pilots unlikely to be effective, contain a number of significant flaws and won’t produce robust results, according to DWP.
