    Hi @Catherine21 you can locate a copy of the annual report here - Human Rights: The UK’s international human rights obligations - GOV.UK

    From what I have found on the Government website, the DWP compliance department select names at random for a local service compliance interview. I’ve noted below the process followed as denoted on the government website. It looks to be a face-to-face interview and there’s no mention of AI or access to phone/computer. Is there somewhere in-particular you’ve read this?

    What Happens at a Customer Compliance Interview?

    A home visit from a DWP compliance officer means you get interviewed inside your own home. Even so, DWP home visits can be rescheduled in cases where it becomes necessary to do so.

    The interviewer will ask you to provide them with two (2) methods of identification (e.g. a passport or a driver’s licence). The main reason why a customer compliance officer will do a home visit will be to inspect some specific documents.

    Here’s what happens:

    You should prepare to show the benefit investigators documentation of your finances, savings, and rent (where applicable). In most cases, it will include:

    • Award notices for benefit claims and tax credits.
    • Statements on bank accounts, building society, or Post Office accounts.
    • Employee payslips, rent book, or proof of a tenancy agreement.

    Note: As a general rule, the customer compliance meeting DWP will last for about one hour. But, it may take longer in some…"

    We do regularly meet with stakeholders within the Government but as I’m sure you can appreciate; we also need to wait for Government announcements etc. What I will say is that there’s a positive post from Tori in our Campaigns team on the WCA consultation ruled unlawful - White paper, part 2 - Page 5 — Scope | Online Community where she updates on our intentions to launch the first of a few opportunities for you all to campaign on the present situation with the benefits system at the beginning of February, all being well which we can all get behind.

    As I’ve said before, I’d be very cautious of misleading or false news stories, especially now with benefits being such a huge focus. If you’re feeling overwhelmed which I totally get, please try and take a little time away from the news and try to spend a little time doing something that you enjoy. It should help you feel a bit better. 💛
