According to a statement you made at the end of 2018 as Parliament was closing down on Thursday 20th December you claimed “The Department has been working at pace and taking the necessary steps required to implement the ruling. We expect around 4,600 people to gain as a result of this review exercise, all claimants who benefit from the Upper Tribunal decision will be notified by the Department”. You then went on to suggest that the claimants are expected to be paid back in the new year. I am writing to check to see if you have now paid them all back. The reason I believe you should have is that according to Theresa May and indeed your other colleagues when people are in a place where they are short of funds, they can receive funds immediately. It is now two weeks since you made the statement (and on Monday you will be back at work in Parliament). There has been 8 working days in that time so there can be no excuse for any longer delay!
