(asked on 29th June 2017) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will allow the Child Maintenance Service to use Child Support Agency fraud investigations to inform its work.
This question was answered on 4th July 2017
Where a Child Maintenance Service case has been referred to the Financial Investigations Unit we will use any previous Child Support Agency investigation findings as information to inform activity on the case. Evaluations will take place on a case by case basis to understand if historic findings are still relevant and fit with new legislation introduced by the Child Maintenance Service. There are currently no plans to change this process.
