HC Deb 30 June 1965 vol 715 c85W
Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Postmaster-General if he will make it possible for those retirement pensioners who wish it to pay their television licence fees in instalments.

Mr. Benn

As I told the House in my statement of 14th April, the special savings cards I am introducing are intended to help anyone who has difficulty in paying for a television licence to save towards the cost of it. I believe this will be a great help and will meet the point my hon. Friend has in mind.
