Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 18 February 2019 to Question 220104 on Social Security Benefits: Fraud, if she will make it her policy to record which police forces her Department has received information from.

The system employed by the Department to manage fraud and compliance referrals does not have the facility to capture this information. Making alterations to this system would incur a cost to the taxpayer which the Department cannot justify as it has no business reason to add this functionality.
