Universal Credit in Worcestershire

The request was partially successful.

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

I am writing to request the following information:

Firstly, I would like the statistics of how many households have used/applied for universal credit in Worcestershire (between January 2013 - January 2018)?

Secondly, I would like a monthly statistical breakdown of how many people have applied for universal credit in the Worcestershire region since January 2018 until October 2018?

Thirdly, I would like to know how long these individual claimants waited before receiving their first payments of Universal Credit after applying?

Lastly I would like to know how the introduction of a fund of up to £50,000 that could support struggling households within Worcestershire will be used and prioritised?

Yours faithfully,

Rachael Turquand
