Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will publish an updated schedule for the next stage of the roll-out of Universal Credit.

The schedule for the migration onto Universal Credit has been published and can be found at

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-transition-to-full-service.

Rollout to all Jobcentres will be completed by December 2018.

The next stage of the rollout is managed migration. The regulations to enact managed migration will come before Parliament in the autumn and are subject to parliamentary approval. During 2019 we will test and refine our processes on a small scale to ensure they are working well before we take on larger volumes from 2020 onwards, and complete the process in 2023.
