The claimant acknowledges that from 24 March 2021 until an unspecified date in June 2021, he did receive universal credit payments from the Department of Work and Pensions, (‘DWP’). It is not clear whether recoupment is applicable in this case, however, the following figures may be of relevance: a) Prescribed element: £2659.08, (being immediate loss of earnings payable as part of the compensatory award and which must be held until the question of recoupment has been resolved); b) Prescribed period: 20 January 2021, (the effective date of termination) until 18 January 2022 (date of remedy hearing). c) Total award: £2909.08 (see Grand total figure in the table above) d) Balance: £250.00 (following the reservation of the prescribed element and payable to the first claimant immediately) NOTE: The respondent will reserve the prescribed element until they have been informed by the DWP what amount of that figure should be subject to recoupment by the DWP (if any), and the amount of the balance of the prescribed element which can then be paid to the claimant.
