Mr. John Marshall: To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will make a statement about the effectiveness of his
Department's attempts to combat fraud in housing benefit. [1721]
Mr. Heald: We fully support local authorities in their efforts to prevent and detect fraud and abuse of housing benefit. In 1995-96,
authorities made fraud savings of £224 million and earned £28 million in extra subsidy for their work through the incentive scheme
we have introduced. In March this year, my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State announced a comprehensive strategy for tackling
housing benefit fraud. We are seeking further powers to help authorities fight fraud in the benefit fraud Bill which we shall
shortly lay before the House.
