Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many letters and emails has his Department's Complaints Team received relating to allegations of child benefit fraud by a recipient living in Russia and no longer habitually resident in the UK, since 2020; how many allegations of child benefit fraud his Department has received about a recipient living in Russia and no longer habitually resident in the UK, since August 2020; and how many cases his Department has been alerted to where a person in receipt of child benefit was believed to be living in Russia and subject to legal proceedings in that country since 2020.
