Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many applications for travel costs under the child maintenance special expenses system were (a) made and (b) awarded in the last 12 months.
The Child Maintenance system collates Special Expense variation data, however there are 7 categories, of which Contact Costs is one. Regrettably this dataset does not breakdown the 7 categories individually but is only provided as a total volume.
