I recently wrote to various people about the possibility of ATOS taking over the administration of the Dwp and this was the response I got from their own Union.

I haven't heard this story but given the government's attitude to privatisation it would not surprise me if there were at least discussions with the private sector along these lines. What we do know is that the government are committed to retaining the delivery of Universal Credit in-house while it is being implemented from 2013-17. As this will be a very large part of DWP's business it would seem unlikely that anything too dramatic will happen in the short term, but beyond then, anything is possible.
