Nationwide Lie Detector Tests to Catch Benefit Cheats 'Benefit claimants will be subjected to lie detector tests to discover if they are cheating the system in a widespread Government crackdown. Unemployed people could also be forced to carry out "community punishments" such as litter-picking or gardening if they miss meetings designed to help them back into the workplace. And single parents and those on sickness benefits will have part of their weekly payments stopped for not keeping to a promise that they will make themselves ready for work.'
