Oral evidence to Work and Pensions Committee: Impacts of the Benefit Cap

Giovanni Tonnutti of Policy in Practice presented to the Work and Pensions Committee on the impacts of the Benefit Cap.

We also released a press statement outlining our findings that half of households are failing to escape the Benefit Cap.

Our Low Income Londoners study found that for every claimant who managed to move off the cap, there is more than one household who is stuck under the cap for six months or longer.
