UC - assessment periods
Has there been any progress with DWP’s challenge to the decision in R (Johnson, Woods,Barrett & Stewart) v SSWP?
I haven’t seen anything and I was wondering if I had missed it?
Hi Pete
CPAG provides updates on the case here: https://cpag.org.uk/welfare-rights/legal-test-cases/universal-credit-assessment-period-inflexibility
I was wondering if I had missed it?
I think you might be over-estimating how quickly things happen in the Court of Appeal…
The current position appears to be that the Court intends to hear the case by mid-2020.

Thanks both of you, I had a feeling I was being over optimistic to think it might have been heard, we live in hope….
Oops, ignore, should have read the links above ..
(I missed that permission to appeal was just granted this week)
