Mr. Webb

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions when he intends to publish Income Related Benefits: Estimates of Take-Up 2000–01; and for what reason it has been delayed. [92154]

Income Related Benefits Estimates of Take-up 2000–01 will be published on 27 March 2003. This has been pre-announced in Updates—the ONS diary of statistical releases. The forthcoming statistics will incorporate findings from research commissioned to improve the precision and accuracy of MIG take-up estimates; this addition has extended the production process.
