Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 February 2025

Debate

Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2025

Contribution

To respond to my noble friend Lady Lister, the Minister for Social Security and Disability, Stephen Timms, is going to lead the review and will engage with people over the next year, inviting views on how we can improve universal credit and looking at the sort of issues I have raised. We will continue to work with stakeholders, and I will take back to the department her specific point about those with lived experience of poverty and make sure that it is heard.
