"In a new judgment the Court of Appeal has considered whether, where a third party knew of a change that affected the benefit of a person claiming income support, the third party was guilty of an offence if they allowed the claimant to fail to report the change."

The Crown court found for the defendant and the Court of Appeal upheld this decision. You can see the case by clicking here.
