FRAUDULENT CLAIMS COST THE ALLOCATIONS FAMILIALES SYSTEM 10 TIMES MORE THAN FIRST ESTIMATED, CONFIDENTIAL REPORT FINDS THE NUMBER of people committing benefit fraud in France is 20 times
greater than initial estimates and the cost to the system is 10 times bigger, according to a new report. The first major study of its kind by the Caisse Nationale d'Allocations
Familiales estimates that 200,000 people are being paid benefits to which they are not entitled, at a total cost of €800m a year. The confidential report, leaked to _Le Parisien_, says the
authorities have a "major problem with detecting fraud". Last September, the CNAF had estimated that less than 10,000 people were claiming illegal benefits at a cost of €80m. The
head of the CNAF's anti-fraud unit, Daniel Buchet, said the body had carried out 300,000 home visits last year to check claimants' eligibility - and would be stepping up these
controls.
