To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security how many contracts the Industrial Services Consortium of Bradford has been awarded by his Department in the last two years, to date; if he will review a decision taken by the purchasing and supply directorate to concentrate leaflet work at Canons park; what reduction in employment of disabled people will result at ISCO 5 if this decision is approved; and if he will make a statement.

The purchasing and supplying of leaflets is a matter for Mr. Michael Bichard, the chief executive of the Benefits Agency. He will write to the hon. Member and copies will be placed in the Library and the Public Information Office.
