Department for Work and Pensions: Families
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether her Department uses the family test; and what her Department's policy is on the publication of family test impact assessments.
Answered by Andrew Western
DWP uses the Family Test during policy development and promotes its use across government.
Family Test assessments are not routinely published by DWP. Decisions on the publication of Family Test assessments fall within the responsibility of each Government department.
