Welfare Reform and Work Act

Proceeding contribution from Deidre Brock (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 March 2018. It occurred during Debate on Welfare Reform and Work Act.

Is my hon. Friend aware of a recent report commissioned by the Equality and Human Rights Commission called “The cumulative impact of tax and welfare reforms”? It showed that, overall, the changes to taxes, benefits, tax credits and universal credit meant that households with at least one disabled adult and one disabled child would lose more than £6,500 a year, which is more than 13% of their annual income.
