The objective of the review, which is not a formal Government consultation, is to design a new approach that will cost the taxpayer significantly less whilst ensuring enough support for those in need.</p><p> </p><p>The Chancellor will announce the support which will be in effect from April 2023 in due course.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 16/11/2022 08:46:42 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge
