I just had a look at this; ssac.independent.gov.uk/pdf/uc-draft-regs-2012-memorandum.pdf
If you scroll down to page 9, point 45 it says;
"The child element comprises of two rates; one rate for the first/only child and then a reduced rate for second and subsequent children.".
So it looks like what is currently child tax credits will no longer be paid at the same rate for each child and will instead (within universal credit) be paid in the same way that child benefit is now paid. I wonder what the rate will actually be for first children and then for subsequent children?
