answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2018 answer text <p>The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales is not an employer in its own right. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) provide employer services on our behalf. However, members of staff can apply for universal credit in a personal capacity and there are a number of different factors which determine whether or not an individual is eligible. MoJ has no central record from which to determine the number and proportion of its staff in receipt of universal credit and it is not therefore possible to make an estimate of numbers.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 31/10/2018 15:04:24 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
