Report from Citizens Advice Craven and Harrogate Districts which looks at the experiences of UC rollout as one of the first areas to go full service. It makes a number of recommendations including around -

- Putting right problems caused by incorrect or inadvertently misleading official information
- Avoiding financial shock
- Simplifying processes for claimants with childcare costs and those who are self employed
- Protecting those on the SDP who are losing transitional protection because they live in an early rollout area
- Making contact easier
- Fairer treatment of claimants moving from ESA to UC
- Fairer treatment of earnings and legacy benefits
