  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 03 October 2017

As an amendment to motion S5M-08035 in the name of Jeane Freeman (Roll out of Universal Credit), insert at end "; believes that the UK Government must put a comprehensive support package in place before universal credit roll-out accelerates, to make sure that people receive advice on managing their money, advances and dealing with complications in the application process; considers that, to support this, the universal credit helpline should be free of charge, at least until the roll-out is complete; recognises the importance of recipients having financial independence, particularly in domestic abuse settings, and therefore believes that universal credit should be automatically split between adults in a household."
