The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has reiterated that it will not delay the introduction of changes to the Universal Credit health element from April 2026, despite concerns raised by a cross-party group of MPs. The Work and Pensions committee made six recommendations in its third report on the Get Britain Working: Pathways to Work green paper.
These include further increases to the Universal Credit standard allowance, over the duration of this Parliament and delaying the reduction in Universal Credit health element until “an independent and comprehensive assessment of the impact the change could have on disabled people” has been conducted.
