It is worth noting that speed of processing times are derived from LA administrative systems. Sometimes changes to LAs’ IT processes and system conversions can result in higher levels of LA speed of processing times for months while these changes are taking place. Sometimes we need to omit certain LA data due to concerns over the quality of the data however the omission of LA data does not change the story in the release but can sometimes have a slight impact on regional level figures. Atilla Ustun, 55, also a chairman of the Luton-Turkish Community Association, spoke to the PA news agency from Heathrow as he helped load a Turkish Airlines cargo plane with more than 300 boxes of donated clothing, medical supplies and aid for babies – just a day’s worth of contributions. He said: Rolling average year-end times for change of circumstances to existing HB claims peaked in the year ending quarter 1 2013 to 2014 then steadily decreased to quarter 3 2020 to 2021. Since quarter 4 2020 to 2021 the rolling average year-end figures showed the trend to be slightly increasing, however the increase has slowed.

In quarter 4 2022 to 2023, the monthly average number of calendar days to process change of circumstances to existing HB claims was:

Among those joining the relief effort are 12 crew members from the London Fire Brigade and 76 search and rescue specialists being sent by the UK Government with state-of-the-art equipment and four specially trained dogs. It is very emotional when this sort of thing happens… The actual size of the disaster is very, very large indeed so we help as much as possible.” During the latest quarter there were 99,000 new HB claims processed, which is an increase of 7,700 (8%) since last quarter, and an increase of 11,000 (12%) when compared to a year earlier. Rolling average year-end figures showed a decreasing trend from quarter 1 2012 to 2013 up until quarter 3 2019 to 2020. The figure hit a low point at quarter 4 2021 to 2022, followed by a slightly increasing trend which has continued up to the latest quarter. Give it a try now with a similar division by 12. What is the Quotient and Remainder of 11000 Divided by 12? Here we provide you with the result of the division with remainder, also known as Euclidean division, including the terms in a nutshell:

DWP also publish HB Debt Recovery National Statistics showing fraud volumes and incorrectly overpaid benefit based on data from LAs.Since the 2012 to 2013 financial year, there have been a greater number of change of circumstances to existing HB claims processed, compared with new HB claims. Rolling average year-end figures show a very gradual decrease in the percentage of new claims processed when compared with change of circumstances until quarter 2 2019 to 2020. The figure remained stable until quarter 3 2020 to 2021, but since then there has been a slight increasing trend at year-end. It is useful to note that in quarter 4 each year, the volume of change of circumstances to existing HB claims increases, due to the end of the financial year before the uprating of rent. However, the average number of days to process those claims decreases because LAs tend to allocate extra resource to process these changes. In the other quarters, the volume of change of circumstances to existing HB claims decrease and have a higher average speed of processing. Details for the average speed of processing for individual LAs can be seen in table 1 of the accompanying data tables.
