(asked on 4th June 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many Universal Credit applicants in full service areas have been allowed split payments of benefit to date as a result of reported domestic abuse.
This question was answered on 13th June 2018
The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.
DWP will support a claimant to put in place a split payment where they have requested it as a result of domestic violence.
