HC Deb 17 July 1970 vol 803 c279W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the present level of family allowances in each country in Western Europe, from information available to him from international sources; and for each of these countries, including Great Britain, what percentage of national average earnings, according to the latest available figures, these levels represent.

Mr. Dean

Information about family allowance rates is complex. I am writing to the hon. Member to give him such information as is available.
