Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what limit there is on the amount of money awarded to people of the Windrush generation in backdated benefits claims.

DWP officials are working with the Home Office and other Government bodies to help individuals affected and ensure that they are able to access the benefits and services to which they are entitled.

Each case is considered on its merits. Where evidence shows that a decision was reached without knowledge of a material fact or based on incorrect information, then the law provides that such decisions can be revised without limit.
