DWP banks bill - would it mean an end to UC reviews?

I know this bill hasn’t gone through yet but I was just wondering that if it did would this lead to the UC reviews where we have to send bank statements ending? I’m thinking this may actually be less anxiety provoking though neither is ideal.

    Hi @Hopeless hope you're doing ok today? Are you referring to the Banks Resolution (Recapitalisation) Bill? If so, I think this is unrelated. But refers to providing the Bank of England more flexibility when dealing with other Banks failures. Please let me know if I've misunderstood and you're referring to another bill.

    Best wishes,

    No, I’m thinking of the fraud bill where banks would be sending certain information to the dwp regularly
