Details

This analysis investigates the reasons behind the downward trend in the number of Housing Benefit claimants receiving a reduction in their award due to removal of the spare room subsidy. It focuses mainly on those who remain in receipt of the benefit, although some analysis of those affected who leave Housing Benefit entirely is also included.
