Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 February 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

I appreciate that the Government have made changes around affordability, but they still do not assess either benefit clawbacks or the deductions on the basis of whether they are actually affordable for the people having to pay them back. Are the Government planning to put that in place at some point in future?
