Labour — Telford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 February 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

In places like Telford, it is a basic principle that people pay into the system and then take out of the system, or their neighbours do, when they are in need. The companies and individuals that are defrauding national benefits are often also defrauding local authority benefits and schemes. Will we extend these powers so that local government is able to work with national Government to pursue this fraud?
