Written answers

Child Benefit is a monthly payment to the parents or guardians of children under 16 years of age.  Child Benefit can also be claimed for children aged 16 and 17 if they are in full-time education or full-time training or have a disability and cannot support themselves.

 A manager will review the Child Benefit claim for the person concerned. The review will be prioritised for early decision. A further decision will issue when the review is complete.   

 I trust this helps clarify the position for the Deputy.
