answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/03/2018 answer text <p>We track the characteristics of families on the Troubled Families Programme through our National Impact Study, which uses national administrative datasets. In our latest dataset 43.9 per cent of the 79,616 families for whom we have linked data had at least one child categorised as a Child in Need.</p><p>This means that children in families on the programme were eleven times more likely to be classified as a Child in Need than those in the general population. The latest Children in Need data we have access to is for families who joined the programme before the end of March 2016, and so our results are subject to time lags.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 05/03/2018 16:46:02 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
