HC Deb 24 February 1971 vol 812 c173W
87. Mr. Meacher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many surtax payers currently receive their full family allowance entitlement, including the latest increase.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

Up-to-date information is not available; but the 1968–69 income survey shows that family allowances were paid in that year for the children of some 67,000 surtax payers.
