Baroness Lister of Burtersett: To ask Her Majesty’s
Government what are their current working assumptions about the number and
proportion of universal credit claimants who are likely to require personal
budgeting support.
Lord Freud: All new Universal Credit claimants will be
offered personal budgeting support if they require it. Of those that do require
assistance, we know that a small proportion will require in-depth budgeting
support and we have arrangements in place to ensure that they can receive this.
This work will be informed by experience in the live service sites as well as
the Direct Payment Demonstration Projects.
