Social Security Benefits: East Thanet
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many households who are receiving the maximum permitted benefits under the benefit cap have three or more children in East Thanet constituency.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
Official Statistics on the number of households in Great Britain on Housing Benefit or Universal Credit who are affected by the benefit cap are published quarterly on Stat-Xplore and are currently available up to November 2024. These statistics include the number of children in the household and are available by various geographies including Westminster parliamentary constituency.
Users can log in or access Stat-Xplore as a guest and, if needed, can access general guidance on how to extract the information required.
