Official statistics of the number of people on Universal Credit by conditionality group are published monthly on Stat-Xplore and available from April 2015 to November 2023.

The latest Universal Credit statistical bulletin provides information about the increase in the number of people in the no work related requirements conditionality regime since October 2018. The Universal Credit caseload is evolving as cases migrate from the previous system and they will be representative of the broader benefit population.
