3 Summary and observations
4 Budget and AS welfare cuts Description April 2016 million April 2017 million Freeze working age benefits and LHA for 4 years Reduce benefit cap to 20, Reduce and simplify UC work allowances Updated UC delivery schedule Limit backdating in HB to four weeks 10 * Reduce social sector rents by 1% for four years Limit child element in TC /UC to two children 315 Limit social sector rates to equivalent LHA rate - - Remove family element/ premium in TC/UC/HB End HB for most out-of-work year olds Abolish WRA component in ESA 55
5 General observations - 1 Designed to not result in direct losses New claims and failure to uprate Existing awards much less harder hit No attempt at external policy justification Target large families Mainly non-housing cost income Applies to in-work and out-of-work families Work does not pay as much but gap between existing benefits and UC is maintained
6 General observations - 2 Some of the smallest savings are likely to cause the biggest disruption End help with housing costs for year olds Benefit cap HB backdating limit four weeks Mainly losses to household income rather than direct help with rent Potential losses to household income far greater than bedroom tax

38 LHA freeze for four years LHA covers bottom 30% of the market If rent inflation outstrips uprating index the available market shrinks If uprating frozen shrinkage rate accelerates Previous uprating restrictions 2013/14 capped at CPI 2014/15 and 2015/16 limited to 1% Rent inflation at 3% for four years will make rent virtually unaffordable (<10% of market)

46 Conclusions
47 Conclusions Cuts mainly to non-housing costs but to money in householders pocket Make 2010 cuts look minor by comparison Smallest cuts are the most damaging LHA caps damaging for under 35s and supported housing The cap and four year LHA freeze make it difficult to certain family types in PRS
