Universal Credit: Deductions
(asked on 20th April 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the ten largest monthly deductions taken from Universal Credit payments were in the last 12 months for which data is available.
This question was answered on 26th April 2023
Tables 1 & 2, in the attached spreadsheet, provide figures for the average monthly third-party deduction and the average monthly council tax deduction for the period December-21 to November-22.
Data for the ten largest monthly deductions taken from Universal Credit payments is not readily available and to provide this would incur disproportionate cost.
