| 3. The figures given in this answer are actual values of official error and customer error detected and recorded by the Department. The Department also publishes estimates of overpayments in the Resource Account and in National Statistics publications. These are based on detailed examination of a random sample of benefit claims and are an estimate of all error, whether it was detected by normal Departmental processes or not. The differences in definition mean that the two sets of figures are not comparable. | |||||||
| 4. Pension Credit was introduced from 6 October 2003, and prior to that, payments would have been made as Income Support. |
