Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if it will publish the risk register for the roll-out of universal credit.

It is not Government’s policy to publish documents of this nature.

The Universal Credit programme is already subject to a robust regime of internal and external scrutiny, including oversight from the Work and Pensions Select Committee, the Public Accounts Committee, the National Audit Office and the Infrastructure and Projects Authority.
