Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many mandatory reconsideration applications her Department has received from claimants disputing the application of the benefit cap in each of the last 24 months; and in how many cases a decision has been (a) made and (b) overturned.

The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.
