Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what is their latest estimate of the number of families and children deprived of access to child benefit since the introduction of the two child limit in 2018; and what is the average annual loss of income per annum to each family affected.
No families or children were deprived of access to Child Benefit as a result of the policy to provide support for a maximum of two children in Child Tax Credit and Universal Credit.
