Protection
Hi
I am sure everyone is receiving lots of calls from people who have not claimed benefits for a long time or ever before.
I have taken a mind blank. Under HB there was the 13 week protection against rent being restricted.
I am correct to think that there is no equivalent under UC
thank you

That’s correct.
DHP could be used to top up housing costs once UC decisions are made.
