Written statement made by James Plaskitt (Labour) on Tuesday, 28 March 2006 in the House of Commons, on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.
Benefit Fraud Inspectorate Reports
On behalf of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, the BFI inspection reports on the following councils were published today: Ceredigion county council, Clackmannanshire council, Durham City council, Havant borough council, the Highland council (two separate reports), Royal borough of Windsor and Maidenhead council, Thurrock borough council, West Devon borough council and Weymouth and Portland borough council. Copies have been placed in the Library. The BFI reports detail a range of strengths and weaknesses in the housing benefit services provided by councils and make recommendations to improve the security and efficiency of benefit delivery. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State is considering the reports and may ask the councils for proposals in response to BFI's findings.
