Book excerpt: Since the 1997 election, the Labour Government has pursued an ambitious programme of welfare reform. Central to this are the New Deal programmes aimed at getting people into work and helping them to stay in work. The Government has commissioned a major evaluation programme in order to assess the impact of the New Deals and to examine the ways in which they are working in practice. This report provides an overfiew of the key results comparing the different New Deal programmes and placing them in the context of the broader frame of welfare to work policies. It should be of interest to policy makers and researchers who want to know more about both the processes and outcomes of these major labour market programmes.
