Abstract of statistics consultation

After a user consultation exercise on the future of this publication between March and June 2019, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has decided that it will continue to update and publish the abstract in line with user needs. We published a response to the comments raised by users during the consultation on 19 December 2019.

To better describe the publication and help improve web searches, we are changing the publication title to ‘Abstract of DWP benefit rate statistics’.

The next publication is provisionally scheduled for February 2020.

Benefit uprating information contained in previous abstract of statistics publications will also continue to be available on GOV.UK. Data relating to inflation, prices and earnings is also available on the Office for National Statistics website.
