Universal Credit Infrastructure and Project Authority reports
Hello all
I’m going to use this thread to collect together links to the UC IPA reports. The reports are, as with UC guidance and UC Programme Board papers, being periodically deposited in the House of Commons library but, unless you already know what to look for, these can be hard to find.
Links to collected UC guidance and to UC Programme Board papers can be found here:

Hopefully this is useful. It’s quite likely that I’ll have overlooked some relevant information - if so then feel free to post in the thread or message me directly.
This post provides background to the release of the IPA reports.

This post covers information on the Major Project Authority’s assessments of the UC programme. On 1 January 2016 the MPA merged with Infrastructure UK to form the Infrastructure and Projects Authority.
