A new investigation has revealed that over 1.1 million people across the UK are being chased by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) for benefit overpayments — many of which were caused by errors made by the department itself.

The breach, which occurred in February 2022, saw a Royal Marine mistakenly email a spreadsheet containing the personal details of nearly 25,000 Afghan nationals who had applied for relocation under the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy (ARAP).
