HC Deb 11 October 1945 vol 414 c434W
Mr. H. Hynd

asked the Minister of National Insurance if he is yet in a position to announce the appointed day for operation of the Family Allowances Act, 1945.

Mr. J. Griffiths

Unless unforeseen difficulties arise, I hope to bring the Family Allowances scheme into operation next August. This is the earliest date by which the necessary administrative preparations can be completed.
