Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many and what proportion of universal credit claims made in pilot areas have been based on independent self-assessment.
We have interpreted the question as the proportion of people who assess their own eligibility for UC via the on-line self assessment tool.
