Local Housing Allowance (temporarily put back up to 30th percentile during pandemic) will be frozen in cash terms from April 2021 - meaning it will fall back below 30th percentile over time #SR20

Budget red book seems to confirm that plus end of £20 a week increase in universal credit introduced at the same time

OBR report makes clear that 'maintain in cash terms thereafter' means freeze

So anyone on LHA will see rising shortfalls against their rent over next five years

The shortfalls will have to be met from their other benefits - with universal credit being cut by £1,000 a year from next April
