Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what financial support his Department provides to 18 and 19 year olds in employment who have never attended college or university.

18 and 19 year olds who are working fewer than 16 hours per week may be entitled to out of work benefits. In areas where Universal Credit has been rolled out, 18 and 19 year olds who are on a low income or out of work may be entitled to claim Universal Credit.
