Parents can also choose to have the money paid into someone else’s account.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 19/07/2017 09:34:17 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

The other two thirds have an outstanding verification issue, such as providing bank statements, evidence of childcare costs, or proof of rent. Many of these claimants receive a part-payment where elements of the claim have been verified.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 19/07/2017 13:10:50 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
