answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/11/2016 answer text <p>Central to the Government’s long term economic plan is the creation of jobs and making work pay. We know that work is the best route out of poverty. Our welfare reforms are about reversing the trend of working age benefits rising faster than earnings since the recession to ensure it pays to work. They are focussed on supporting those people who can work to find and keep work rather than rely on benefits, ensuring fairness and affordability for the tax payer. We are committed to balancing incentivising work with protecting those who cannot work, and helping with the costs of additional needs. That is why benefits for the additional costs of disability, and for carers, are up-rated each year in line with prices.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 01/11/2016 16:18:08 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
