Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent estimate he has made of the number of adults in (a) York and (b) York Central constituency living in households where there is personal debt.

The Money and Pensions Service (MaPS) monitors financial difficulty in the UK through the Debt Need Survey, with data on levels of over-indebtedness at a local authority level last published in 2018. MaPS will publish the results of the 2021 Debt Need Survey early this year, which will include a regional breakdown of their new Need for Debt Advice measure.
