uin	7286
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2017 answer text <p>DWP conducted some early analysis based on staff home postcodes and pre-existing rail and bus timetables and timings; this was a preliminary exercise when a number of potential sites were under consideration. However, whilst the Department has identified a potential location north of Cardiff for a new strategic hub, it is not yet confirmed. It is therefore too early to determine which existing offices will move to a hub location in the future, or to make further assessment of public transport provision. The site is to be retained as part of the DWP estate for the next 3-5 years.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 11/09/2017 13:24:35 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2017 answer text <p>The Cwmbran Pension Centre site is to be retained as part of the DWP estate for the next 3-5 years, and as such no decision has yet been made on the closure of the site. As a large employer, DWP understands the potential impact that a closure or relocation of an office may have. Generally though the economic impact of employment is dispersed beyond the specific location of a workplace – because people spend most of their money where they live. I would also add that as our estate is made up of leased buildings, the landlords may offer premises to new tenants once DWP vacate.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 11/09/2017 12:14:05 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
