Non dependent reduction whilst on Universal Credit and in receipt of DLA?

After receiving esa for several years and dla high rate due to breast cancer , i had to go too an assesment last year and lost all my esa even though i have been diagnosed with other medical conditions , i have been made to look for work even though i am undergoing a second operation next month for breast re construction , i am still receiving dla as yet not been invited to apply for pip , what i am concerned about is that i have lost £16 a week on my housing element since going onto Universal Credit as i have a non dependent daughter , i have been told that i should not have lost it as im still in receipt of dla ?

The housing element is what dwp decides and isn't decided by the council.
DLA isn't relevant here, Universal credit by the looks of it requires you to inform them as you would have before.
Have you asked for a ESA mandatory reconsideration/ Tribunal appeal ?
