Private providers would organise the 30-hour-a-week placements with charities, voluntary organisations, local authorities or companies. The work could be similar to community sentences handed down by courts but there would not necessarily be the same emphasis on physical labour.

Which means they don't know, so why not wait until the full details of the plan are released before all going off one.
This leads me onto the way news is delivered nowadays.
The BBC being the worse cuprits in my eyes.
I'm sick of watching news reports with the words, could, might, potentially, etc in them.
As soon as hear or read a report with the word "could" I know instantly that it is nothing more than speculation, and speculation is not news.
BBC Breakfast might as well be rebranded as Breakfast gossip for the amount of factual reports we actually get.
Rant over.
