Housing sector bodies have spoken out against the “cruel
and ineffective” benefit cap after it was revealed that more than 70% of those
who have seen their housing benefit capped were single parent households.
Figures released by the Department for Work and Pensions revealed that 58,000

families, with more than 75% of these families containing at least one child
under five years old. Read more on Inside Housing.
