Frank Field – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Frank Field on 2015-10-09.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what proportion of eligible people took up Healthy Start vouchers in (a) Birkenhead, (b) the Liverpool, city region and (c) the UK in the last period for which figures are available.

Jane Ellison

The following table outlines the proportion of eligible people who applied for and received Healthy Start vouchers in Wirral (including Birkenhead), Liverpool, Liverpool City Region areas and the United Kingdom using the latest data covering a four week period. The take up rate is therefore a snapshot rather than an average of all four week cycles during an annual period.

Cycle No. 161 Covering Period: 24 August – 20 September 2015

Area	Recipients	Eligible	Take Up
Liverpool	5,250	6,557	80%
Halton	1,141	1,544	72%
Knowsley	1,859	2,287	80%
Sefton	1,755	2,344	75%
St Helens	1,585	2,003	79%
Wirral (Birkenhead included)	2,834	3,509	80%
UK	430,620	585,990	72%
Birkenhead Postcodes	Beneficiaries (by Postal Sector)	Under One	Over One	Pregnant	Beneficiary Child with Pregnant Mother
CH41	555	127	387	41	67
CH42	607	135	432	40	51

The numbers of families eligible and the take up rate for Healthy Start are not available below local authority level, so the figures for Birkenhead are included as part of the overall figures for Wirral. Numbers of beneficiaries for Birkenhead using postcode data are provided. All eligible people are contacted by the Healthy Start Issuing Unit and are invited to apply. The Department also publicises the scheme via the Healthy Start website and helpline.

Frank Field – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Frank Field on 2014-06-30.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the income to the National Insurance Fund would be if all people over the state retirement age paid contributions.

Mr David Gauke

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) currently estimate that abolishing the national insurance exemption for people of pensionable age in 2014/15 would raise around £950m in NIC receipts.

This figure is based on employee and self employed national insurance contributions (Classes 1, 2 and 4).

The estimate is based on the latest available Survey of Personal Incomes (2011/12), which has been projected in line with Budget 2014 economic assumptions.

The estimate also includes a behavioural adjustment to reflect changes in labour supply for this age group which are subject to some uncertainties.
