Housing Benefit helps those on a low income in social or private housing to pay all or part of their rent, and supported some five million households in Great Britain in 2011-12 at a cost of £23.4 billion. Reforms aim to reduce annual expenditure by £6.2 billion by the end of 2014-15. The changes are being introduced without comprehensive modelling of the likely outcome on individuals or on housing supply and with limited understanding of the costs local authorities will incur. Those individuals who receive Housing Benefit are by definition on low incomes and even small reductions in entitlement can have a significant impact on their finances. The reforms are expected cut benefits for two million households. The impact of these reforms on claimants' finances may be compounded by other changes to the welfare system. The Department cannot model the impacts of the reforms as they depend on the actions claimants take in response to changes in their individual circumstances. Instead the Department plans to adopt a reactive approach, changing rules as problems arise. Claimants need to understand now how their benefit payments will change and what options they have to minimise the impact on their finances, for example, by taking in a lodger. Strong efforts must be made by the Department, local authorities and Social Housing organisations to inform claimants about the reforms; however, to date the evidence suggests that they have not been effective. Aldo, the Department has failed to take into account the administrative costs of implementing the reforms.

The Department spends around £900 million annually on programmes to help unemployed people find and sustain work through its contracts with a range of companies and some charities. Following a hearing on the Work Programme in February 2012, allegations of potential fraud and poor service from employment programme clients and whistleblowers were passed to the Department. The Department has initiated an investigation of the adequacy of controls at A4e, one of its major contractors, and is investigating individual allegations. The Department has not defined what standards a company must meet to be a 'fit and proper' organisation with which the Department is willing to contract. The Department's controls against financial fraud for the Work Programme are a significant improvement on previous schemes, although allegations that some providers give a poor service have already begun. Furthermore, risks also remain in the Department's other programmes. The Department's 'black box' approach to contracting for the Work Programme allows providers to innovate but without sufficient auditing and neither is there a mechanism in the contract for improving service standards over time. The Department lacks sufficient information on the nature and number of complaints made directly to contractors to identify trends and learn lessons. There is also no obvious mechanism through which participants, contractors' employees or MPs can raise issues of concern relating to fraud and poor service. While it may be tempting to define an acceptable level of fraud it the committee's view that this is the wrong approach. Rather the department should take all reasonable and affordable steps to drive out fraud
