answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/01/2015 answer text <p>Records of the outcome of individual claims for damages are not maintained in a way which facilitates identification of those subject to surveillance and monitoring activities. From anecdotal evidence it is believed that over the period from 2008 to 2014 there were no instances which resulted in a claim being withdrawn, and there were no cases where such evidence was disclosed in court; but there were a number of cases where surveillance or monitoring indicated that claimants were exaggerating the extent of their disability, resulting in payment of damages in line with their true loss.</p> answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry question first answered 23/01/2015 13:50:34 answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry
