Supplementary Benefits Commission

HC Deb 03 February 1967 vol 740 cc183-4W

Mr. Steele

asked the Minister of Social Security whether she will now make a statement on the membership of the Supplementary Benefits Commission.

Miss Herbison

Yes. The members of the Commission are:

• Mr. Richard Hayward, C.B.E. (Chairman).
• Alderman Percy Morris, C.B.E., J.P. (Deputy Chairman).
• Alderman S. C. Hamburger, C.B.E., J.P.
• Mrs. M. A. McAlister, J. P.
• Professor David C. Marsh, M.Comm.
• Mrs. Barbara N. Rodgers, M.A.
• Mr. M. R. F. Simson, O.B.E.
• Professor Richard M. Titmuss, C.B.E., Hon. LL.D., Hon. D.Sc.

This, as I am sure the House will agree, is a strong and distinguished team. I am confident that the Commission has an important part to play in the development of our social security arrangements.
