§ Mr. Haseldineasked the Minister of Social Security if she will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT a comparison of social security benefits and contributions in the United Kingdom and the Six Member Countries of the European Economic Community.
§ Miss HerbisonTo be meaningful such comparisons would take up far too much space in the OFFICIAL REPORT and would require many extensive tables and elaborate explanations. But I will see that the Library receives copies of three volumes of comparative tables on social security, published by the Commission of the European Economic Community and the High Authority of the Coal and Steel Community, together with comparative tables prepared in my Department.
