Working Tax Credit Overpayments

EDM number 423 in 2004-05, proposed by Eddie McGrady on 20/12/2004.

That this House notes with great concern the large number of low income families in receipt of working tax credit who have been advised that they have been overpaid by the Inland Revenue; notes the financial strain that re-payment is causing these families, who are already under financial stress; and calls on the Minister responsible to take immediate action to resolve this serious situation.

This motion has been signed by a total of 80 MPs.
