<p>The age breakdown of the 65,900 claimants who were in the Limited Capability for Work-Related Activity group in November 2022 but had left that group by November 2023 is below. Currently we do not report aggregate information that directly identifies if the reason for leaving the group is as a result of reaching state pension age and to collate and quality assure this information would incur disproportionate costs. However, 15,700 of these claimants were aged 65 in November 2022, so would have turned 66 during the year.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Age Group</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>UC claimants who were in the LCWRA group in November 2022 but not in the LCWRA group in November 2023</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Missing - no match to age information</strong></p></td><td><p>700</p></td><td><p>1.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Under 20</strong></p></td><td><p>400</p></td><td><p>0.5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>20 - 24</strong></p></td><td><p>3,000</p></td><td><p>4.5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>25 - 29</strong></p></td><td><p>3,600</p></td><td><p>5.5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>30 - 34</strong></p></td><td><p>4,400</p></td><td><p>6.6%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>35 - 39</strong></p></td><td><p>4,400</p></td><td><p>6.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>40 - 44</strong></p></td><td><p>4,600</p></td><td><p>6.9%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>45 - 49</strong></p></td><td><p>4,500</p></td><td><p>6.9%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>50 - 54</strong></p></td><td><p>5,700</p></td><td><p>8.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>55 - 59</strong></p></td><td><p>6,800</p></td><td><p>10.3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>60 - 64</strong></p></td><td><p>7,700</p></td><td><p>11.6%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>65 - 69</strong></p></td><td><p>19,800</p></td><td><p>30.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>70 and over</strong></p></td><td><p>400</p></td><td><p>0.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Total</strong></p></td><td><p>65,900</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p><strong>Notes:</strong></p><ol><li>These figures are rounded to the nearest 100, produced using internal MI and are not quality assured to Official Statistics standards.</li><li>The matching process to produce claimant age group information has resulted in small differences to the total LCWRA volume when compared to the previous response.</li><li>The monthly total age breakdowns of claimants on UC Health by stage are published on Stat-Xplore.</li></ol> |
