Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will set out the service delivery standards for universal support.

DWP asks local authorities to measure the take-up of Universal Support provision.

The guidance, which sets out our expectations around Universal Support, was sent to Local Authorities with their grant-funding offer. The guidance is also published online and can be accessed at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-universal-support-201819-guidance
