Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what plans he has to further roll out the Universal Credit programme in Torbay constituency in 2015-16.

The national roll out of Universal Credit is on track. Torbay is part of our Tranche 4 roll out schedule which runs from December 2015 to April 2016.

I enclose a link to overall roll out and expansion plans:
