59. Mr. J. Johnson

asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance whether, in view of the hardship caused to widows when they lose the children's allowance at the age of 16 years when the child is still attending school, he will consider introducing legislation to change this.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

I would refer the hon. Member to the proposals in the Bill that I shall be presenting today.
