HC Deb 02 December 1968 vol 774 c225W
68. Mr. Donnelly

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what estimate his Department has made of the saving to public funds of limiting pensions to people of pensionable age with an income of less than £15 a week for a couple and £9 for a single person.

Mr. Swingler

None, since the Government have no intention of applying a means test to contributory pensions.
