HC Deb 12 February 1951 vol 484 c25W
160. Mr. Boardman

asked the Minister of National Insurance whether now, following the publication of the First Interim Report by the Government Actuary on the National Insurance funds, and in view of the wage increases now being conceded in many industries which in turn will still further increase living costs, any increase in old age pensions and other insurance benefits is contemplated.

Dr. Summerskill

I am studying the Report in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer but I cannot make any statement at this stage.
