HC Deb 23 October 1967 vol 751 cc343-4W
15. Mr. Holland

asked the Minister of Social Security whether she is satisfied that all offices at the local branches of her Department can now deal with the full range of inquiries about both contributory and supplementary benefits; and if she will make a statement.

Mrs. Hart

Arrangements have been in operation since the Ministry was set up in August 1966 for inquiries over the full range of contributory and non-contributory benefits to be dealt with at all our local offices and in general they are working satisfactorily.
