This is because it is dependent on those eligible coming forward to claim a refund.</p><p> </p><p>We have taken a wide range of proactive steps to publicise the refund scheme, including through the gov.uk website, letters to parliamentarians, and information disseminated through partners such as trades unions, the Law Society and the Citizens Advice. From April 2018, we wrote to everyone entitled to a refund and who had not yet applied, as well as interested MPs, to ensure they were aware of the scheme and how to apply. We will continue to monitor the progress of the refund scheme going forward.</p> answering member constituency Blackpool North and Cleveleys answering member printed Paul Maynard question first answered 08/07/2019 15:36:35 answering member 3926 label Biography information for Paul Maynard
