The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the answer of 23 April 2026 to Question 124822 on Proof of Identity: Digital Technology, how much will participants of the People’s Panel be paid in terms of (a) expenses and (b) direct payment.

Answered by Mr James Frith

Participants of the People’s Panel are paid to recognise the time they are giving up to take part. Payments are aligned to each workshop they attend, so may vary depending on attendance, and include expenses such as travel, meals and accommodation and any additional caring requirements (if needed).
