HC Deb 26 May 1977 vol 932 c545W
Mr. Sproat

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the average time in which a person is a fraud officer in a local office of his Department.

Mr. Orme

The length of time an individual is employed as a "fraud officer" is a matter for local management to decide but a period of between one and a half and two and a half years is usual.
