Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many applications for universal credit made by people aged under 25 in (a) March, (b) April, (c) May, (d) June and (e) July are still being processed.

The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.

Universal Credit is standing up to the challenge in this unprecedented time with around 90% of claimants paid in full and on time.
