PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Pension Credit: North West Norfolk (4 October 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many applications for Pension Credit have been (a) received and (b) approved in (i) North West Norfolk constituency and (ii) the UK since 29 July 2024.

Asked by:
James Wild (Conservative)

The information requested regarding the number of Pension Credit applications is not readily available below national level and to provide it at constituency level would incur disproportionate cost.

Year to date figures for weekly Pension Credit claim volumes, received in the Department, were recently published in an ad hoc statistical release. They are available via Weekly Pension Credit claims received from 1 April 2024 to 22 September 2024 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
