Should there be no change in the labour market outlook or the pace at which claims are migrated, the current business case assumes for planning purposes the bulk of this exercise will be complete by 2019.</p><p> </p><p>Universal Credit is being implemented in a safe and secure manner using a test and learn approach. Taking this approach has allowed us to accelerate our plans for national roll-out of Universal Credit to all Jobcentres and Local Authorities from February 2015, and will deliver £7 billion in economic benefits per year.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Forest of Dean answering member printed Mr Mark Harper question first answered 11/11/2014 17:05:49 answering member 1520 label Biography information for Mr Mark Harper
