Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people have been (a) placed into financial hardship, (b) become destitute or (c) become homeless while subject to the benefit cap in (i) Slough and (ii) England.
This information is not available.
Getting our claimants back into work remains our primary concern and returning to employment will significantly increase the likelihood of a household not being affected by the cap.
