A basic rate taxpayer who also receives universal credit will still be better off from the personal allowance increase, as will a taxpayer who receives other means-tested benefits.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Universal Credit will improve work incentives by allowing people to keep more of their income as they move into work. Universal Credit will provide a single deduction rate of 65 per cent: for each £1 increase in post-tax income, 65 pence of Universal Credit will be withdrawn.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Government believes that increasing the personal allowance is the most effective way to support those on low and middle incomes. It enables people to keep more of the money they earn.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Deighton question first answered 26/03/2015 13:55:34 answering member 4262 label Biography information for Lord Deighton
