Child benefit is not claimed by all eligible families. Note that care should be exercised in interpretation of the term out-of-work benefit household, which means that at least one parent or guardian is claiming an out-of-work benefit. A distinction needs to be drawn between households where no one in the family unit is working Use caution when comparing trends in percentages for different areas because of the reducing number of families claiming child benefit. This reduction is likely to affect more affluent families who are no longer eligible for child benefit (since 7 January 2013). A reducing denominator will mean an increasing percentage.
