HC Deb 20 October 1971 vol 823 c868

10.28 p.m.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke (Rushcliffe)

I was intending, Mr. Speaker, to raise as the next subject on the Adjournment an important case with my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State for Health and Social Security. He has now been spared my lengthy advocacy, but I ask him briefly to look into the question of resources taken into account in applications for legal aid by the Supplementary Benefits Commission. I shall be writing to my hon. Friend about the case. I hope that he will treat it sympathetically.

The Under-Secretary of State for Health and Social Security (Mr. Paul Dean)

I will gladly respond to my hon. Friend's request.

Question put and agreed to.

Adjourned accordingly at twenty-nine minutes past Ten o'clock.
