Universal Credit experimental statistics: consultation
Read our consultation on future developments to Universal Credit statistics.
We would like you to tell us what additional Universal Credit statistics you would like us to develop in the future and what you would use this additional information for.
This will help us to identify and prioritise the future development of Universal Credit statistics, subject to the availability and quality assurance of the data.
