§ Sir George Youngasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether the figure of £4.50 allowable earnings before invalidity benefit is withdrawn, given on page 7 of the new April 1975 issue of DHSS leaflet NI 16A National Insurance Invalidity benefit, is correct; and, if not, whether she will issue instructions for a new correct version to be issued.

§ Mr. Alfred MorrisThe change in the "therapeutic earnings limit" from £4.50 to £7 was made after the reprint of the leaflet NI 16A was ordered. Arrangements are in hand for an amending slip to be produced for insertion in the leaflet before issue. In addition, at the time of the increase, staff of local offices of the Department were instructed to bring the change to the notice of any person of whom they were aware who might benefit from the increase.
