The request was partially successful.

Steven Harkins

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

Please could you supply me with any original documents including press releases or minutes of any meetings discussing the release of information relating to the recent spate of media stories relating to "Benefit Fraud Excuses".

I would also like to see any e-mails, or meeting minutes involving DWP special adviser Susie Squire on this subject.

Most of these stories have been attributed to ministers however I note that there is no official press release on the DWP website relating to this information release.

The time scale for this request is between 24-May-2011 and the 30-June-2011.

Yours faithfully,

Steven Harkins

DWP have never prosecuted any Mother's who have broken CSA law by being in receipt of a prescribed benefit without stating the name of the child's FATHER.

Why is this?
