THIRD SECTOR AND THE ROLL-OUT OF UNIVERSAL CREDIT

Early day motion 245, tabled 5 September 2017 by Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party). Signed by 29 members.

That this House commends the work of Citizens Advice Scotland and the 20 other charities that have been working together to highlight the horrendous experiences of those people suffering as a direct result of the universal credit roll-out; praises the ongoing work of those organisations, and the wider third sector, in their efforts to help the thousands of families struggling financially as a result of universal credit; supports their calls for an immediate pause of the roll-out of universal credit; and urges the Government to work together with the third sector to solve the many problems associated with the roll-out of universal credit.
