HC Deb 08 May 1986 vol 97 c228W
Mr. Park

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many persons are in receipt of (a) supplementary benefit and (b) unemployment benefit in (i) the Coventry, North-East constituency and (ii) the city of Coventry; if he will list the categories under which benefit is claimed; and if he will give the equivalent figures for the past five years.

Mr. Major

Coventry is covered by two of the Department's local offices, Coventry (East) and Coventry (West), for supplementary benefit purposes and by five unemployment benefit offices in Coventry and one in Bedworth for unemployment benefit purposes. The boundaries of these offices are not conterminous with those of the Coventry North-East constituency or the city of Coventry.

Mr. Hayhoe

I regret that this information is not held centrally
