Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what estimate she has made of the number of households in the Sheffield, Brightside and Hillsborough constituency that will be in receipt of universal credit by year-end (a) 2018, (b) 2019 and (c) 2020.

The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost, as we do not currently forecast at constituency level.

The national rollout of Universal Credit will complete in December 2018. During 2019 we will test and refine our processes on a small scale to ensure they are working well before we take on larger volumes from 2020 onwards, and complete the process in 2023.

No more than 10,000 claimants will be migrated in 2019.
