Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will list each programme on the PSFA High Fraud Risk portfolio, by department and public body.

The High Fraud Risk Portfolio (HFRP) provides a common view over the areas of highest fraud risk in government.

The government does not intend to list each programme on the HFRP on the basis that the risks of publication outweigh the benefits. The government however has provided the HFRP to the Public Accounts Committee for independent scrutiny and oversight.

The Public Sector Fraud Authority (PSFA), in partnership with HM Treasury, will continue to work closely with departments that have programmes in the portfolio to enhance their management of fraud risk.
