Department for Work and Pensions written question – answered at on 19 May 2022.
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how much her Department has spent on housing payments to individuals in receipt of Universal Credit in Wales in each of the last five years.
The information requested on Universal Credit Housing Element (UCHE) expenditure in Wales is not readily available and to provide it would incur a disproportionate cost.
UCHE expenditure is available at the GB level for 2019/20 and 2020/21, on rows 8 and 60 of the housing benefits sheet of the benefit expenditure and caseload tables for Autumn Budget 2021:
