answer text

The information requested in respect of all housing benefit claimants is not available. The Department does collect some information on the number of entitled bedrooms in respect of the Local Housing Allowance only. We are therefore unable to answer these questions which relate to all housing benefit claimants. The information available is for local housing allowance (LHA) cases by the number of entitled bedrooms and weekly award amount bands. This information is published and available at:<a href="https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/" target="_blank">https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/</a> Guidance on how to extract the information required can be found at:<a href="https://sw.stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/webapi/online-help/Stat-Xplore_User_Guide.htm" target="_blank">https://sw.stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/webapi/online-help/Stat-Xplore_User_Guide.htm</a>
