§ Mr. Fieldasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the eligibility for rate rebates for a single person, married couple, married couple with one, two and four children as a percentage of (a) gross and (b) net average earnings for each year since the scheme's inception.
§ Mr. KingThe question cannot be answered in the form requested, because eligibility would vary with rates and 685W income among other factors. If the hon. Member would care to write to me with more specific questions, including assumptions about the income and rate levels in which he is interested, I shall see whether the information could be provided.
