Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many caseworkers working on Child Maintenance are available across (a) the UK and (b) the devolved nations in the last five years.

The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.

The Department is committed to delivering an effective Child Maintenance Service and ensures resourcing is regularly reviewed and deployed efficiently to meet customer needs.
