Neil Gray: To
ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what estimate her Department
has made of the proportion of claimants of universal credit who have a
deduction for housing rent arrears in the first month of their claim in the
last month for which data is available.
Will Quince:
The latest available data is for eligible claims to UC Full Service that are
due a payment in December 2018. Of those claims with a payment in December 2018
relating to the first month of their claim, 2% have a deduction to repay rent
arrears. This equates to 3,000 claims.
