Agenda 21 ?

Hi
I work within the dwp so please don't use my name as it could cost me my job.
The dwp are rolling out nationally an initiative to work with 120k families whose
lives are blighted by joblessness, single parents, crime and truancy. We have
specially trained personnel to work closely with them to break these harmful
trends and integrate them into society, improve their lives and make working
the preferred options.

However what has not been released and is being kept hush hush is that these

families are to achieve certain targets working with our staff and stakeholders,

professional organisations which have been hand picked to get the desired

results as expediently as possible. The department is investing a great deal of

resources into this project and participants are to be under no illusions that

equal investment and commitment are required from them. This will not be

an option where families can choose not to be involved in.....if they refuse to

participate, their benefits will be stripped under sanctions. 

If after a period

of 26 weeks results are not forthcoming and improvements tangible and

sustained all benefits will be withdrawn. The adults will either have to work in

any position that can be found and will be paid via fuel food and basic clothing.

If the children continue to truant and participate in anti social behaviour those

under 13 will be taken into care and those over 13 will be expected to work

under the same terms as their parents with tutors twice weekly to ensure a

basic level of literacy and numeracy. They will not be living with their parents

but in dormitory accommodation. Tenders have been received and a short list

drawn up for the lots as with pip.

Fore runners are G4S, Deloittes, Veolia, Capita and Serco

Myself and many other staff are horrified but are powerless to stop this.

The govt are saying they will save more on what they cut on the benefits

including DLA for the people in these families getting high rates for anger and

behavioural problems, housing benefits and benefits for babies and children.

Any of the parents having children throughout or once they've failed the

initiative will be taken into the care of local authorities.

The families will be allowed supervised access at contact centres as deemed

acceptable by the people overseeing the project and the handlers for the

individual families.

This is all underway and being arranged as we speak. The govt see these

families as an absolute blight on society and one way or another are

determined to get rid of them in any way they can. Their view is that

support and money haven't helped, ASBO's are a joke and seen as a

badge of honour and children whether in these families or other families

on low incomes are a drain on resources and they believe if they stop

paying then the children will stop being born and those already here

will have to either conform or to be excluded and earn their keep. To

get disability allowance for children is going to be nigh on impossible

which is why the reforms haven't targeted them, new plans are underway

as the perception is that ALL children need care and parents know this

before having them therefore there are only very rare circumstances

where additional support is justifiable.

Thank You
