(asked on 30th June 2014) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, when his Department first submitted the Universal Credit Strategic Outline Business Case to HM Treasury.
The initial Universal Credit Strategic Outline Business Case was shared with HM Treasury in March 2011. Further iterations have been shared since, as is usual practice, and an updated draft of the overall Strategic Outline Business Case, covering the full life-time of the Programme up to 2023/24, was sent to HM Treasury in December 2013.
The Chief Secretary to the Treasury has approved the UC Strategic Outline Business Case plans for the remainder of this Parliament (2014-15) as per the ministerial announcement (5 December 2013, Official Report, column 65WS)—link to WMS:
