Universal Credit will contain a "housing component" thus potentially bringing housing allowance the same (subject to Welfare Reform Bill approval) up to 3 year sanction period. A cynic would say that was a prime or at least of one the motivators behind the introduction of Universal Credit.

I have also noticed that they seem to target lone parents a lot of the time. These sanctions and threat of them are getting a bit beyond a joke now. They've got everyone (claimants) almost terrified every time their letter box goes in case it is a notification of a sanction! That poor pregnant girl being reduced to tears, too well they most certainly pick their marks a women on her own and her innocent unborn baby who would have also felt his/her mum's upset. What a pity they're not as tough on drug addicts alcoholics and those who have no intention of working as they are on lone parents and pregnant women. I am totally disgusted.
