answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/04/2022 answer text <p>The most recent data available is for the 24 April 2022. At that point over 162,000 Kickstart jobs had been started by young people. The last Kickstart jobs were started by young people on 31 March 2022, and we expect the number of starts to increase further as employers report commencement of employment.</p><p>We have previously published the number of jobs approved and advertised as of 31 January 2022 <a href="https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questions/detail/2022-01-31/114956" target="_blank">here.</a> At that point, over 235,000 jobs had been advertised and over 305,000 had been approved. Kickstart has now closed to employer applications and, as of March 2022, all approved jobs proceeding to the advertisement stage, have been advertised. As such, these totals will not increase further.</p><p>Below are tables listing the number of Kickstart jobs which have been made available and started by young people to date by geographical area of Great Britain and work sector. The figures used are correct as of the 24 April 2022 and these figures have been rounded according to departmental standards.</p><p>Jobs made available (advertised) and job starts quoted here include some unfunded Kickstart jobs. Also included in the Great Britain total are a small number of jobs made available (less than 100 in total) that have an unrecorded job location.</p><p>The number of approved jobs is defined as the number of jobs associated with approved applications recorded on the Kickstart application system on the date above. This total excludes approved jobs that have been withdrawn from the Kickstart Scheme by agreement with employers and gateways. This is generally because, over time, some previously approved jobs were removed where the employer chose not to follow up the application.</p><p>Although care is taken when processing and analysing Kickstart applications, referrals and starts, the data collected might be subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large-scale recording system, which has been developed quickly.</p><p>The management information presented here has not been subjected to the usual standard of quality assurance associated with official statistics but is provided in the interests of transparency. Work is ongoing to improve the quality of information available for the programme.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Table 1: Number of Kickstart total available jobs and job starts, Great Britain, by nation and region (figures rounded to nearest 1000*)</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>Total jobs made available</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Total jobs started</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Region / Nation Split</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>(DATA RETAINED FROM 31/01/22)</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>(DATA EFFECTIVE 24/04/22)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Total, Great Britain</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>235,000</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>162,000</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>England</strong></p></td><td><p>204,000</p></td><td><p>141,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East Midlands</p></td><td><p>14,000</p></td><td><p>10,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East of England</p></td><td><p>18,000</p></td><td><p>12,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>London</p></td><td><p>51,000</p></td><td><p>33,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North East</p></td><td><p>11,000</p></td><td><p>8,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North West</p></td><td><p>30,000</p></td><td><p>21,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>South East</p></td><td><p>26,000</p></td><td><p>17,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>South West</p></td><td><p>14,000</p></td><td><p>10,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>West Midlands</p></td><td><p>21,000</p></td><td><p>16,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Yorkshire and The Humber</p></td><td><p>19,000</p></td><td><p>14,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Scotland</strong></p></td><td><p>19,000</p></td><td><p>14,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Wales</strong></p></td><td><p>12,000</p></td><td><p>8,000</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Table 2: Number of Kickstart total available jobs and job starts, Great Britain, by Sector (figures rounded to the nearest 10*)</strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Sector Split</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Total jobs made available</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Total jobs started</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>(DATA RETAINED FROM 31/01/22)</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>(DATA EFFECTIVE 24/04/22)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Administration</p></td><td><p>57,350</p></td><td><p>39,920</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Animal Care</p></td><td><p>1,610</p></td><td><p>1,330</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Beauty &amp; Wellbeing</p></td><td><p>1,720</p></td><td><p>1,320</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Business &amp; Finance</p></td><td><p>8,500</p></td><td><p>5,910</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Computing Technology &amp; Digital</p></td><td><p>15,840</p></td><td><p>12,340</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Construction &amp; Trades</p></td><td><p>7,230</p></td><td><p>5,170</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Creative &amp; Media</p></td><td><p>20,990</p></td><td><p>16,700</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Delivery &amp; Storage</p></td><td><p>6,380</p></td><td><p>4,430</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Emergency &amp; Uniform Services</p></td><td><p>520</p></td><td><p>360</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Engineering &amp; Maintenance</p></td><td><p>7,080</p></td><td><p>4,890</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Environment &amp; Land</p></td><td><p>4,620</p></td><td><p>3,450</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Government Services</p></td><td><p>1,000</p></td><td><p>710</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Healthcare</p></td><td><p>6,140</p></td><td><p>3,460</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Home Services</p></td><td><p>1,560</p></td><td><p>900</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Hospitality &amp; Food</p></td><td><p>26,380</p></td><td><p>14,030</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Law &amp; Legal</p></td><td><p>650</p></td><td><p>520</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Managerial</p></td><td><p>960</p></td><td><p>660</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Manufacturing</p></td><td><p>6,430</p></td><td><p>4,390</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Retail &amp; Sales</p></td><td><p>34,970</p></td><td><p>26,410</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Science &amp; Research</p></td><td><p>990</p></td><td><p>790</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Social Care</p></td><td><p>4,740</p></td><td><p>2,640</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sports &amp; Leisure</p></td><td><p>5,920</p></td><td><p>4,150</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Teaching &amp; Education</p></td><td><p>11,000</p></td><td><p>6,790</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Transport</p></td><td><p>900</p></td><td><p>460</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Travel &amp; Tourism</p></td><td><p>1,110</p></td><td><p>580</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p><strong>*</strong> <strong>Due to rounding, sum of figures may not match declared total</strong></p> answering member constituency Mid Sussex answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 28/04/2022 08:31:22 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/02/2022 answer text <p>ONS does not produce statistics on vacancies below the national level. However, estimates of ‘online job adverts’ are available at a regional level. These statistics show online job vacancies for South East England are up 24% since the start of the pandemic (February 2020).</p><p>Throughout the pandemic the UK Government has provided historic levels of support to the economy – a total of over £400 billion. This includes key DWP programmes such as Restart and Kickstart alongside other measures to boost work searches, skills and apprenticeships. Our support was in addition to the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (furlough) and the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme.</p><p>We have launched 'Way to Work’, a concerted drive across the UK to help half a million people currently out of work into jobs in the next five months. We will be bringing employers into jobcentres and matching them up with claimants. This is good news for employers who need to fill vacancies and for our claimants.</p> answering member constituency Mid Sussex answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 10/02/2022 15:07:47 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
