<p>Everyone in DWP has a role to play in stopping fraud and error.</p><p> </p><p>In
recent Spending Rounds we secured additional funding enabling us to enhance our counter-fraud
and error capabilities including a new Targeted Case Review (TCR) team to review millions
of Universal Credit claims, as well as recruitment into our Counter Fraud & Compliance
Directorate (CFCD).</p><p> </p><p>We are continuing to create a culture where stopping
fraud and error and minimising debt is a shared goal of everyone in DWP and those
who deliver services for us. All staff will understand the part they play within DWP,
and they will have the knowledge, skills and tools they need to deliver.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>
