<p>The Department is committed to delivering managed migration in a way that supports
all claimants, including those with mental health issues, as they transition onto
Universal Credit. Managed migration will begin in 2019 with a lengthy and robust period
of at least a year to learn and adapt and ensure our processes are working well before
we begin to migrate at scale. We are working closely with a large and diverse number
of stakeholders, including those who focus on mental health issues and are seeking
their input on the design of the managed migration process to ensure that vulnerable
claimants are fully supported.</p><p> </p><p>The draft Universal Credit (Managed Migration)
Regulations 2018, which were laid before Parliament on 5 November 2018, provide the
flexibility necessary to support this collaborative design process. These regulations
are essential to ensuring that all claimants, including those with mental health issues,
migrate onto Universal Credit smoothly.</p>
