HC Deb 04 November 1975 vol 899 c103W
58. Mrs. Hayman

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether she will now give details of the preferential earings disregard for one-parent families dependent on supplementary benefit announced on 20th October.

Mrs. Castle

As I said during the debate on the Report of the Finer Committee on One-parent Families on 20th October—[Vol. 898, c. 67–8]—a preferential earnings disregard for one-parent families is being considered in the current review of social security priorities. I cannot say more than that at present.
