HC Deb 14 November 1966 vol 736 c20
38. Mr. Winnick

asked the Minister of Social Security how long it will be before there will be one single book that will cover both a person's retirement pension and social security supplement.

The Minister of Social Security (Miss Margaret Herbison)

We must give first priority to clearing the very large number of claims to the new supplementary pension which I am happy to say my Department is receiving. Subject to this, I hope to start a pilot scheme for combined payments in the New Year.
