HC Deb 20 April 1971 vol 815 cc376-7W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, in view of the factual evidence submitted to him showing that Ford strikers have been illegally claiming social security benefits, he will take steps to deal with this practice.

Mr. Dean

Normal inquiries made within the Department have brought to light a small number of cases of fraud by Ford strikers, and prosecution will follow where appropriate.
