The total value of overpayments was £1.55 billion.</p><p>Estimates of the average value of repayments in each of the last 12 months are not readily available.

These repayments were made on overpayments from all previous award years. On top of this, £188m of tax credits overpayments transferred to DWP as customers migrated to UC.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 07/01/2020 10:33:42 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
