Have they just added Buxton to the 1st June list?I don’t recall seeing it there before.
I had Glossop JCP, not Buxton, so that makes it all High Peak in one go!
Yep; the information given previously was very messy when it came to post codes, they said Glossop JC+ only then seemed to indicate all sorts of High Peak post codes. ‘Twill be helpful to know what they are really on about!!!

This references S.I. 2015/1537 (C.87). yet I can’t find this statutory instrument anywhere, am I missing something obvious? I’ve checked legislation.gov.uk and it doesn’t seem to show up there.
Here it is -

Was published yesterday but must have been pretty late as we were looking out for it in the day….
Thanks Ros :-)

I think it’s only just gone up in the last hour - looks like exactly the same case-mix as the areas which started earlier this year (ie the gateway conditions apply and limited to single claimants without children).
There’s a catch-all provision so that any postcodes they omitted earlier (or newly created codes) are covered to the same extent from 25 April 2016 (excluding NI, of course).
I’ve tried to map the expected positions…
by the end of this year:-

...and by the end of April 2016:-
https://www.lgbp.co.uk/ucpc/ucpc.html
Does anyone know what the current gateway conditions are?
In Welfare Rights bulletin 246 - easier to read than the regs
We don’t get that publication anymore.
