UC in Northern Ireland - families with 3 or more dependent children
Does anyone know if the rules preventing families with 3 or more dependent children claiming UC in a full service area, also apply in Northern Ireland?

Regulations bringing in these changes come into force in Northern Ireland immediately when main UC regulations are commenced there.
See SR.No.79/2017 and the rightsnet news story on that rule.
Hi Stuart
That’s great. Thanks a lot.

Might that be religious discrimination—everywhere but most pointedly in Northern ireland?
