Bill Grant (Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock) (Con)
Will my right hon. Friend confirm that more than eight in 10 claimants are satisfied with their experience of universal credit?
Ms McVey
My hon. Friend is right—that is exactly the number. Actually, Patrick from Newport has said that it helped him with fares to get to a job and with the cost of clothing. He said:
“Thanks for all your help. It was really easy dealing with everyone who helped me back into work quickly and helping me buy what I need and travel back and forth.”
That was an example from Wales.
