To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to the Statement of 18 July on employment and support allowance, WS877, what estimate she has made of the number of people who have been underpaid in (a) Doncaster and )b) South Yorkshire.

We are not able to make an estimate at this geographical level.

We are focusing our efforts on contacting all potentially affected individuals to ensure they are paid as quickly as possible.
