Details

This page contains monthly and quarterly DWP statistical summaries for 2014.

Monthly statistical summaries

Monthly statistical summaries provide early caseload estimates for the following working age inactive benefit client groups:

  • Lone parents receiving Income Support
  • Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and Incapacity Benefit claimants in receipt of ESA, Incapacity Benefit, Severe Disablement Allowance, Income Support or Pension Credit
  • ESA and Incapacity Benefit claimants receiving National Insurance credits only

The monthly early caseload estimates for working age benefit client groups are replaced later by national statistics covering the same period in DWP quarterly statistical summaries. Early caseload estimates are therefore not a replacement for national statistics.

The latest early caseload estimates for working age inactive benefit client groups were released on 17 December 2014 in the monthly statistical summary: December 2014 (data to October 2014).

Read further guidance on early caseload estimates for working age inactive benefit client groups.

Quarterly statistical summaries

Quarterly statistical summaries provide final national statistics on caseloads for all the main DWP administered benefits, Jobseeker’s Allowance and Employment and Support Allowance sanctions. These figures are usually released 5 to 6 months after their reference period. For example, data up to the end of May 2014 was published in November 2014.

To provide a more complete picture of DWP responsibilities, statistics on Housing Benefit and the Child Support Agency are also included.

Quarterly statistical summaries also provide the latest available monthly data on early caseload estimates for working age inactive benefit client groups.
