IDS finally admits what EVERYONE ELSE already knows: Universal Credit will be late

Brian Wernham

All will be known this Monday (on 6/12/2013)

Kelly,

On Monday Iain Duncan Smith will have to explain how much money will be written-off to reset project for second time this year.

You say £140m - the DWP has only 'fessed up to £34m so far...

... a source tells me that, by co-incidence, on Monday the DWP will slip out its annual accounts which it has been holding back for 6 months. These will for the first time state the amount written off on Universal Credit.

£140m? More? We will know the facts on Monday...
