Read the background information and methodology note for guidance on these statistics, such as timeliness, uses of the statistics and procedures.
New statistics intended for release in August 2022
Along with the number of children and the age of the youngest child in Universal Credit households the measure will include:
- the ages of all children in Universal Credit households.
Users are invited to comment on these proposed changes.
Interactive tools
Software used for the interactive maps is no longer supported. These showed households on Universal Credit at the local authority level and people on Universal Credit at Jobcentre Plus level. The interactive maps have therefore been withdrawn and a replacement is currently under development. Once completed and launched, the interactive tool, Examine-a-Stat, will have improved functionality, including interactive maps, to better meet a wider range of user needs. It will be available in due course and the statistics are currently accessible on https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/" class="govuk-link">Stat-Xplore.
Pre-release access
In addition to staff who are responsible for the production and quality assurance of the statistics, up to 24-hour pre-release access is provided to ministers and other officials. We publish the job titles and organisations of the people who have been granted up to 24-hour pre-release access to the latest Universal Credit statistics.

Proposed changes to Universal Credit statistics in forthcoming releases
New statistics intended for release in August 2021
In line with the DWP statistics user engagement strategy we are also seeking views from users on our intention to include new measures on children in Universal Credit households from the August 2021 release. These measures are:
- the number of children in Universal Credit households
- the age of the youngest child in Universal Credit households
It is also intended to amend family type, as the children variables will be based on a broader definition of children than the policy definition for eligibility for the child entitlement.
More information on these new statistics is provided in about these statistics in the latest quarterly bulletin. Users are invited to comment on these proposed changes.
