Text
I thank the Member for his question. As I have set out, we will try, through the transition support service, to improve that read-across in the immediacy. Certainly, I am more than happy to work cross-departmentally to achieve that and also to engage with the Member and his constituents on it. Where good practice already happens, we want to build on it and roll it out across the board. If there are examples, I would be keen to hear about them and see them.
