The Department for Work and Pensions has confirmed they
are testing a new system to pay social landlords direct payments of benefit. This
would see landlords receiving money from the DWP at the same time the tenant
receives their Universal Credit payment. Third Party Deductions for outstanding
arrears will still be channelled through the four-weekly Third-Party Creditor
schedule.
The idea that is the test is successful, it would be
fully rolled out to all social landlords in early 2020. Read more on 24housing.
