Reasons for new claims to Universal Credit not resulting in a start on benefit - Nov 19-present
Dear Department for Work and Pensions,
You have previously released a table showing a breakdown of reasons for refusals of new claims to universal credit for each month down to October 2019.
(See FOI2020 00634 - response of 03/02/2020 - available online here: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/6... )
I would be grateful if you could now release the same information in respect of months after October 2019 - down to the latest month for which you have the available figures.
Many thanks.
Martin Williams.
Yours faithfully,
Martin Williams
