Social Security Benefits: Children

Question for Treasury

UIN HL11628, tabled on 20 November 2018

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the statistics they published on 28 June, how many (1) families, and (2) children have been affected by the policy to provide support for a maximum of two children in each month since that policy came into effect.

4 December 2018

For the numbers of children affected by the policy at April 2018, I refer the noble Lord to my response on 25 July 2018 to the Lord Bishop of Durham (HL9479). The next statistical update, covering the position at April 2019, is expected to be released in summer 2019.

Figures for additional months are only available at disproportionate cost.
