What is the total number of individuals enrolled on the basic income pilot and will the Cabinet Secretary provide a full breakdown of their areas of residency by council area, including the number residing outside of Wales?

Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Culture and Social Justice | Answered on 25/04/2024

In September 2023, we published the Basic Income for Care Leavers in Wales pilot statistics: August 2022 to July 2023. This included data on the number of individuals enrolled on the pilot and those residing in Wales, England or elsewhere.

We are unable to provide a breakdown of areas of residency by council area or residence outside Wales due to the risk of individuals being identified.

The next statistical update on the Basic Income for Care Leavers in Wales pilot will be published in the Autumn.
