Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment his Department has made of the potential merits of including information directed at people eligible to receive Specified adult Childcare Credits on the Child Benefit (CH2) form; and if he will make a statement.
Guidance on Specified Adult Childcare (SAC) credits is already provided on gov.uk. We think that including SAC credits information on the Child Benefit form could distract from the key message on the importance of claiming Child Benefit as SAC credits gives access to benefits such as National Insurance credits.
