Universal Credit claimants are entitled to support for housing costs as long as they can prove they have a commercial liability to pay rent for the accommodation that they live in and meet all other conditions of entitlement. Claimants will usually evidence their housing costs with a tenancy agreement, but we can consider other forms of evidence such as a letter from the landlord or a rent book.<\/p>
<\/p>
For private sector tenants, their support for housing costs will be the relevant Local Housing Allowance rate or the actual rent cost where this is lower than the relevant LHA rate.<\/p>
<\/p>
For social sector tenants, their support for housing costs will normally be their actual housing costs, including eligible service charges less any deductions.<\/p>
<\/p>
In cash terms there is no difference between the level of support for housing costs used to calculate the claimant\u2019s monthly award, and those paid under a managed payment to a landlord so long as the level of Universal Credit award is greater than the value of the housing costs. However, the exact amount of a managed payment to a landlord is dependent on the level of award and any other deductions applied to the Universal Credit claim.<\/p>

The UK Emergency Medical Team recently deployed to Bangladesh following the diphtheria outbreak in December 2017. DFID also has the option to deploy Team personnel only to work in existing national health facilities and did so to Nepal in 2015, Gaza in 2014 and the Philippines in 2013.<\/p>
Taking into account lessons learned from previous deployments, including safety concerns for deploying UK nationals and problems with access and permits, the current Emergency Medical Team is not designed to be deployed into active conflict zones. The UK government has provided £1.5 million to the ICRC to help treat patients in 11 hospitals in Gaza by restocking vital medical supplies and providing physical rehabilitative services.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1201", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alistair Burt"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Bedfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Alistair Burt"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-07-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "160363"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-07-10T15:46:17.137Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Disaster Relief"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, on how many occasions and to which countries the UK Emergency Medical Team has been deployed in the last five years.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4657", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anneliese Dodds"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Oxford East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Anneliese Dodds"} ], "uin" : "160362"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 7, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
