Universal credit recipients could work “about two hours extra” a week to replace the £20 weekly uplift due to end next month, says the work and pensions secretary.
The extra money has been paid since last April. It was due to last for a year, and was later extended, but the chancellor has said the increase will not be paid from 6 October.
Therese Coffey said the government wanted to help people “get on in to better paid jobs”.
