Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 12 December 2016 to Question 56414, if he will establish a programme to make regular contact with a group of people who are subject to a benefit sanction in order to discern whether they have used food banks at any time over the duration of the sanction for the purposes of collecting data and determining whether there is a link between benefit sanctions and food bank usage.
I refer the hon. Lady to my previous Answer of 12 December 2016 to Question 56414.
