Estimates of unclaimed HMRC administered benefits for the requested geographical levels are not available.

HMRC are unable to provide the information due to small sample sizes at the geographical levels requested. HMRC do produce statistics on the take-up of these benefits at a UK regional level in their Child Benefit, Child Tax Credit (CTC) and Working Tax Credit (WTC) take-up rates publication available on GOV.UK.
