Carer's Allowance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many households have (a) one, (b) two and (c) three or more individuals in receipt of Carer’s Allowance.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.
Published information on the number of people in receipt of Carer’s Allowance using DWP administrative data, and information on benefit receipt on a household and benefit unit basis is available through the Family Resources Survey (FRS), is available on Stat-Xplore.
You can log in or access Stat-Xplore as a guest user and, if needed, you can access
guidance on how to extract the information required. There is also Family Resources Survey data on Stat-Xplore: user guide available.
