It will help organisations to recruit and retain talented staff who are often overlooked because of a gap on their CV.</p><p>Procurement of a supplier to deliver the pilot is expected to launch shortly. Information on the available funding and the expected length of the programme will be released when the procurement is launched. A formal evaluation will be conducted alongside the pilot programme to build the evidence base for what works for returners and employers.</p> answering member constituency South Ribble answering member printed Katherine Fletcher grouped question UIN 67196 67197 67198 question first answered 24/10/2022 09:16:44 answering member 4834 label Biography information for Katherine Fletcher
