The latest set of Child Trust Fund statistics showing UK-wide information was published byHM Revenue and Customs on 29 September at www.hmrc.gov.uk/stats/child_trust_funds/child-trust-funds.htm—these show that over 75 per cent. of parents are using their child’s voucher to open a Child Trust Fund account.
Child Trust Fund information on take up at constituency level will be available early next year. A detailed distributional analysis of the Child Trust Fund looking at take up by income group will also be published in 2007.
