  • Monitoring of Impact of Welfare Reforms

    • Reference: 2013/0007-1
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 13 March 2013
    There have already been many significant and cross-cutting changes to the welfare system, and there are even bigger changes planned for the coming year. Is there adequate monitoring and publicly available information about the cumulative impacts on Londoners, councils and support agencies?
  • Impact of Housing Related Welfare Reforms (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 13 March 2013
    I want to follow up from Stephen Knight's questioning on the CPI. Perhaps I could ask Kate, because she did not get a chance to answer. Have I got it right that the CPI is going to mean that rents are now going to be tagged to the CPI, rather than to rent inflation? Further, as the CPI has always risen at a much lower rate than rents, the 30th percentile which the LHA is tagged to will drop to perhaps 20th or 10th percentile available? Have I got this right?
