Is overpayment recoverable if DWP knew about undeclared savings, but delayed in suspending benefits?

Good Morning, 
Can anyone please enlighten us if overpayment is recoverable in a situation where DWP fraud investigators knew about £20,000 in a claimant savings but delay (for 1 year) in suspending benefit because they were looking for more undeclared money.
