Child Tax Credit

HC Deb 29 March 2004 vol 419 c1243W

Mr. Webb

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions what correspondence his Department has sent to families relating to the transfer of the child elements of jobseeker's allowance and income support to child tax credit payments; and if he will place copies in the Library. [159702]

Mr. Pond

We have written to all families on Income Support and income-based Jobseeker's Allowance in the last six months, explaining how the transfer of the child elements of their benefit to the Child Tax Credit will affect them.

A copy of the letter is available in the Library.
