Petition Preventing benefit abuse

More details

Create a framework, simillar to the 'anti money-laundering' legislation in the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 , whereby public bodies will be forced to check the bonafides of recipiants of public funds. Every public body that dispenses funding or benefit will have to set up frameworks, overseen by specific individuals, to ensure that tax payers only look after those entitled to assistance. Failure to do so would result in a criminal offence by the identified individual within the public organisation.
