HC Deb 24 November 1969 vol 792 cc6-7W
Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services when he expects the Supplementary Benefits Commission to have completed its review of disabled persons subject to the wage stop.

Mr. Crossman

The Supplementary Benefits Commission hopes that its review will be completed by the end of January. Any increases of benefit payable to people who cease to be subject to the wage stop as a result of the review will take effect from the beginning of this month.
