英国希望让DWP访问银行数据以验证福利资格,减少欺诈,并进行监督. UK seeks to let DWP access bank data to verify benefits eligibility, reduce fraud, with oversight.

英国政府正在推进立法,允许劳工和养老金部 (DWP) 访问银行数据以验证获得普遍信贷,就业和支持津贴和养老金信贷的资格. The UK government is advancing legislation that would allow the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to access bank data to verify eligibility for Universal Credit, Employment and Support Allowance, and Pension Credit. 该法案目前正在上议院审查,它将要求银行分享金融信息,以发现欺诈或错误,例如账户余额超过16 000英镑的资本限额。 The bill, now under review in the House of Lords, would require banks to share financial information to detect fraud or errors, such as account balances exceeding the £16,000 capital limit. 虽然DWP没有直接的账户访问权限,但如果其他收回方法失败,它可以直接扣除债务. While the DWP won’t have direct account access, it could directly deduct debts if other recovery methods fail. 修改的目的是减少福利欺诈和多付款项,保障措施包括信息专员办公室和议会的监督。 The changes aim to reduce benefit fraud and overpayments, with safeguards including oversight by the Information Commissioner’s Office and Parliament. 最终版本取决于领主的审查。 The final version depends on the Lords’ review.
