Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Government Counter-Fraud Function’s previous estimate that 57 per cent of COVID-19 expenditure was at ”a high or very high fraud risk”, what is their current estimate of the level of risk surrounding COVID-19 health expenditure.

We estimate that approximately 49% to 51% of COVID-19 health expenditure is at high or very high level of fraud risk.
