HC Deb 24 June 1971 vol 819 c335W
57. Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many persons, while in receipt of supplementary benefit but wage-stopped, have been imprisoned for debt during each of the last five years; and how many such persons are imprisoned at the present time.

Mr. Dean

I regret that statistics of persons imprisoned for debt while receiving supplementary benefit are not kept.
