Work and Pensions Committee Spending Review inquiry

The Work and Pensions Committee has launched a new inquiry examining DWP’s spending priorities and how it makes its spending decisions, in light of the announcement of a forthcoming cross-government Spending Review.

The committee are inviting ideas and “model budgets” to suggest what DWP’s spending priorities should be – and what trade-offs it might have to make – for the next three years. The benefits freeze is due to end before next year’s Budget.

You can read more about the consultation, and read the consultation documents, on the Parliament website.
