Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate he has made of the (a) number and (b) proportion of staff employed by his Department in receipt of universal credit; and if he will make a statement.
This question was answered on 29th October 2018
The department and its executive agencies do not hold the relevant information to be able to estimate the number and proportion of its staff in receipt of universal credit. Universal credit is dependent on an individual’s circumstances. This includes their housing arrangement, caring responsibilities and dependent children. This information is not held by the department.
