Iain Duncan Smith hiding failings of Universal Credit, say MPs

Tue, 19/08/2014 - 12:36 -- nick

Iain Duncan Smith has been accused of trying to hide his failings - by an influential group of MPs.

Smith publicly 'reset' his £2.4 billion Universal Credit scheme after hundreds of millions of pounds of development spending had to be written off.

But the Public Accounts Committee says this was simply a way of trying to stop scrutiny of its problems and to hide them away.
