answer text <p>The information requested is not readily available and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p>By way of clarification, the amount of Universal Credit payable is first calculated net of any deductions, irrespective of whether there is a Managed Payment to Landlord in place. Where the amount calculated is greater than housing costs, the Managed Payment to Landlord will be for the full amount of housing costs with the claimant receiving the remaining amount of Universal Credit; where the amount of Universal Credit calculated is less than housing costs, that amount is paid directly to the landlord and the claimant receives no payment of Universal Credit.</p> more like this
