In Wirral access to our ICT facilities is free of charge for the first half hour with a small charge for subsequent time. Currently jobseekers are exempt from the charge provided the resource is used to access employment and training opportunities information.
In the light of the move to Universal Credit we are considering allowing free internet access to any claimants filling in claim forms for JSA.
Has anyone else yet modified the charging policy as a result of the upcoming changes or does anyone who currently charges already have such an exemption ?
