The Government will carefully consider the findings set out in the Special Rapporteur\u2019s interim report published on 16 November. Professor Alston\u2019s final report will be presented to the June 2019 session of the of the Human Rights\u2019 Council. Any formal comments made by the Government in response will be published alongside the final report on the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights\u2019 website.<\/p>

<\/p>
Under this Government, income inequality has fallen and remains lower than in 2010; the number of children in workless households is at a record low; and there are 1 million fewer people in absolute poverty (before housing costs) compared with 2010, including 300,000 children.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Autumn Budget announced a number of changes to Universal Credit ahead of further expansion including an increase of £1,000 in work allowances from April 2019 allowing 2.4 million households to keep an extra £630 of income each year.<\/p>
<\/p>
Work continues to offer people the best opportunity to move out of poverty. Children living in households where all adults are working are five times less likely to be in relative poverty after housing costs than those in workless families.<\/p>
