HC Deb 01 December 1970 vol 807 c330W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether the addition to a family's weekly earnings of the family income supplement will be taken into account in assessing entitlement to other means-tested benefits.

Mr. Dean

Yes. But I should make it clear that in most cases of statutory means-tested benefits the payment of family income supplement will not affect entitlement.
