Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, on what dates and in what locations the universal credit in work pilots are due to start.
We will launch the first in-work progression Randomised Controlled Trial in Universal Credit in April 2015, subject to securing the necessary piloting regulations.
The trial will initially start in 10 Universal Credit sites and extend to further sites in the North West later in 2015.
