Social security legislation 2023/24. Vol II - Nicholas Wikeley

Universal Credit, State Pension Credit and the Social Fund is Volume II of the newly-restructured Social Security Legislation series. Universal credit has now become the default means-tested working-age benefit for new claims in the social security system. The position has been reached where, for virtually all practical purposes, it is impossible to make a new claim for any of the so-called "legacy" working-age means-tested benefits replaced by universal credit. As with all the volumes in the series, Volume II provides the relevant legislative text, clearly showing the form and date of amendments, up to date to April 2022, with detailed explanatory commentary, including reference to all relevant decisions of the courts, the Upper Tribunal and the former Social Security Commissioners. Includes authoritative and comprehensive analysis of many important topics and decisions.
