Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 June 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

I hope that has answered noble Lords’ questions and explained how the policy came about, what the safeguards are and the reasons why the department is operating in the way it does at the moment. We are very focused on improving payment accuracy while trying, where it is appropriate, to recover public money in a way that supports anyone struggling with their repayment terms. In the light of that, I ask my noble friend to withdraw her amendment.
