DWP Universal Credit update as thousands could be owed £5,000 in compensation
Thousands on Universal Credit could be in line for compensation "in excess of £5,000" after a legal challenge spearheaded by Leigh Day solicitors on behalf of 275 claimants who were stripped of their Severe Disability Premium (SDP) upon transitioning to the benefit. Leigh Day's website update indicates that as many as 13,000 individuals might be eligible for a payout from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
