HC Deb 21 October 1969 vol 788 cc192-3W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will take steps to exclude pensions and allowances of war disabled pensioners from consideration as income for the purposes of the rate rebate scheme.

Mr. Denis Howell

I have been asked to reply.

This point will be considered in the review of local government finance which is being undertaken in the light of the report of the Royal Commission on Local Government in England.
