HC Deb 24 October 1973 vol 861 cc540-1W
Mr. Brocklebank-Fowler

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many people in the constituency of the hon. Member for King's Lynn have qualified for the over-80s pension since its introduction.

Mr. Dean

I regret that this information is not available. Figures are only kept nationally. In November 1972, the date of the last count, there were about 125,000 over-80s pensions in payment throughout the country.
