The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what data banks will have to share under the Fraud, Error and Debt Bill.

Answered by Andrew Western

The Fraud, Error and Debt Bill will introduce a range of measures that will interact with banks and Financial Institutions. Information shared will vary by each measure but will always be proportionate, and include strong safeguards being put in place for each.

Further details will be set out when the Bill is introduced to Parliament shortly.
