HC Deb 05 April 1977 vol 929 c494W
Mr. Sproat

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether his local office at Great Yarmouth has made payment, in whole or in part, to a dealer renting television sets in respect of arrears for a television set owed by a person on social security; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Orme

It is not the Supplementary Benefit Commission's policy to make such payments. If the hon. Member will give me details of specific allegations, including the name of the person concerned, I will look into them.
