answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p /> <p>This Government is determined to end youth unemployment, and support all young people into work. In order to prevent young people slipping straight into a life on benefits, from April 2017 we will remove automatic entitlement to housing support for new claims in Universal Credit from 18-21 year olds who are out of work. This measure ensures young people in the benefits system face the same choices as young people who work and who may not be able to afford to leave home.</p><p> </p><p>However, we will ensure that vulnerable young people who are in need of support for their housing needs continue to receive it.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>People living in specified accommodation claiming Universal Credit do not receive the housing element, and instead receive support for their housing costs though Housing Benefit. The Government has no plans to change 18-21 year olds entitlement to Housing Benefit, so claimants in specified accommodation will continue to be supported with their housing costs and will be unaffected by this policy.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 14/09/2015 16:30:36 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
