Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether people in receipt of child tax credit who are requested to migrate to Universal Credit but are ineligible to make such a claim are able to receive the transitional protections afforded to Universal Credit claimants.

All claimants will be assessed for eligibility to UC and for Transitional Protection if they make a claim. This includes those in receipt of child tax credit.
