Written Answers
Arts: Government Assistance Asked by: Baroness Buscombe (Conservative - Life peer) Wednesday 22nd May 2024 Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport: To ask His Majesty's Government what proportion of financial subsidies given to the creative industries over the past five years have employment conditions attached to them so that those working and seeking work in the creative industries do not need to rely on the benefits system. Answered by Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay No financial subsidies given to the creative industries over the past five years have had employment conditions attached to them.
Social Security Benefits: Polygamy Asked by: Baroness Buscombe (Conservative - Life peer) Wednesday 22nd May 2024 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask His Majesty's Government whether the benefits system continues to recognise polygamy in social security regulations and, if so, why. Answered by Viscount Younger of Leckie Polygamous marriages are illegal in the UK Universal Credit does not recognise polygamous households in the benefit system. Any adults living in the household would each have to claim as a single person on the basis of their own circumstances. Benefits such as Income Support, Jobseeker's Allowance, Employment and Support Allowance and Housing Benefit do recognise a small number of polygamous marriages which took place in a jurisdiction where polygamy is permitted. This number is very small and declining, since the Immigration Act 1988, it has not been possible for people polygamously married overseas to bring second wives to the UK through the spouse visa route.
Social Security Benefits Asked by: Baroness Buscombe (Conservative - Life peer) Friday 24th May 2024 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask His Majesty's Government whether, when referencing benefits, they will gross up the value of each benefit to demonstrate a direct and fair comparison with salaries paid to people who are not claiming benefits. Answered by Viscount Younger of Leckie It has not proved possible to respond to this question in the time available before Prorogation. Ministers will correspond directly with the Member.

Polygamous marriages are illegal in the UK

Universal Credit does not recognise polygamous households in the benefit system. Any adults living in the household would each have to claim as a single person on the basis of their own circumstances.

Benefits such as Income Support, Jobseeker's Allowance, Employment and Support Allowance and Housing Benefit do recognise a small number of polygamous marriages which took place in a jurisdiction where polygamy is permitted. This number is very small and declining, since the Immigration Act 1988, it has not been possible for people polygamously married overseas to bring second wives to the UK through the spouse visa route.
