Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, in light of the transfer of the Public Fraud Authority away from the Cabinet Office to the Department of Work and Pensions, how they intend to operate this transfer, recognising the powers given as core functions of the Minister of the Cabinet Office as set out in Part 1 of the Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Act 2025.

As per the standard legal process of a Machinery of Government change, officials are preparing the transfer in relation to the Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Act 2025, and other legislation underpinning the work of the Public Sector Fraud Authority (PSFA).
