HC Deb 08 February 1996 vol 271 c300W
Mr. Bill Michie

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security how many of the parents with care referred to in his answer of 26 October 1995,Official Report, column 803, lifted off income support following the payment of maintenance assessed by the CSA, were in receipt of mortgage interest payments made in respect of their income support entitlement. [13598]

Mr. Andrew Mitchell

The information requested is not readily available, and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.

Although it is possible to give the number of parents with care lifted off income support following the payment of maintenance assessed by the Child Support Agency, it is not possible to identify those who were in receipt of mortgage interest payments as part of their income support entitlement. There is no business need for the Child Support Agency to record this information.
