answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/04/2019 answer text <p>Under the Compliance and Arrears strategy we are writing to clients with CSA debt above certain thresholds to ask if they want us to try to collect their arrears. These thresholds provide a reasonable cut off point to ensure that we do not pursue cases at disproportionate cost to the taxpayer. They are: over £500 and the case is less than 10 years old, and over £1,000 and the case 10 years old or over.</p><p> </p><p>If correspondence is returned as the client is not known at the address held, the Service will attempt to trace a current address in order to reissue the letter.</p><p> </p><p>If a client confirms they want the Service to attempt collection, the case is checked to ensure the debt balance is accurate before arrears are transferred from the CSA IT system to the CMS one.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 02/04/2019 12:58:35 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/04/2019 answer text <p>Where an award which is based on a tribunal’s decision is being reviewed, that decision is considered as evidence alongside any new evidence, for example a HCP report and the claimant’s own evidence. Its relevance and the weight given to it by a decision maker will depend on the date of the decision and whether the claimant’s circumstances have changed in the meantime.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 02/04/2019 12:59:08 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
