These letters below highlight the difference between something that is really is ‘entirely voluntary’ and something that is not. If something is ‘voluntary’ then why are Version 1 and Version 2 of these letters so different?
Version 1: One with threats of destitution benefit loss sanctions.
Version 2: For 16 to 17 years that is ‘entirely voluntary’ because it has no threats of destitution benefit loss sanctions

The point being that 'yes' it may be common knowledge now that it's voluntary for the first week. but it's been shown and proven that claimants were not told that it's voluntary for the first week. they can pull out with no risk of losing their benefits.
up until now.
