As I’ve previously stated, the decision to close Port Glasgow job centre has absolutely nothing to do with providing a Government service. Rather, it is part of the UK Government’s goal of selling £4.5 billion-worth of Government land and property by 2020-21.
The Scottish Affairs Committee highlights a lack of clear planning.
Therefore, a full and proper evaluation of Jobcentre Plus provision throughout Scotland must be carried out to ensure the quality of service provided and the job security of DWP staff.
