Paula Jinman from Gosport has been sentenced to 60 hours of community service and Tracey Howitt, also from Gosport, has been ordered to carry out 40 hours community service. The women have also been ordered to each pay back £4,000 of benefits which they claimed but weren't entitled to. Both pleaded guilty to not telling the council they were working.
In London, Jose Sagrado, who claimed over £1,700 from Newham Council by pretending to be unemployed, must serve a year-long community service order with 200 hours of work and £150 costs. He was convicted of a similar offence last year.
And in Wakfield a five hour vehicle check identified approximately £6,000 of council tax evasion.
