HC Deb 05 December 1975 vol 901 c449W
Mrs. Chalker

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if she will give her estimate of the cost in the next financial year to the Supplementary Benefits Commission if income tax rebates are not taken into account in the provision of supplementary benefit to strikers and their families.

Mr. O'Malley

I regret that, as detailed information about the resources of people who claim supplementary benefit during a trade dispute is not available centrally, no estimate can be given.
