HC Deb 20 February 1976 vol 905 c851W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is her current estimate of the average weekly level of occupational pension.

Mr. O'Malley

The latest estimate for Great Britain, based on the Family Expenditure Survey for 1974, is that the average weekly amount of occupational pension received by occupational pensioners was £8.80. This survey did not include people living in institutions, and the estimate is also subject to sampling errors.

Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is her current estimate of the proportion of occupational pensions at the following weekly levels: less than £1, £1–£2, £2–£3, £3–£4, £4–£5, £5–£6, £6–£7, £7–£8, £8–£9 and £10 or over.
