100. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of National Insurance whether she will arrange for allowances granted through national assistance to be increased approximately in proportion to any substantial increase in the cost of living.

Any amendment of the Regulations governing the amounts paid by way of assistance is a matter in the first instance for the National Assistance Board who have the matter under constant review.
