The government has announced that there will be an exemption from 'The Real Time' information for small employers of less than 50 staff until April 2014.  The system is a corner stone of Universal Credit and is meant to make a smooth transition between in and out of work and increasing or decreasing wages.  Until the system operates smoothly claimants would have to declare their change in wages on line themselves monthly.  The tax Credit system when it was brought in experienced similar problems.  Hansard 27 Jun 2013 : Column 376W
