HC Deb 09 February 1971 vol 811 c108W
95. Mr. Faulds

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will seek powers to provide that the maintenance and confinement fees of unmarried mothers should be borne by central funds and not fall on local authorities.

Mr. Alison

I am not sure what the hon. Member has in mind, but if he will write to me I shall be glad to consider the matter.
