§ Mrs. Chalkerasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what will be the cost of extending the mobility allowance to all those awarded a tricycle as an out-of-phase applicant or the allowance during 1976, when they reach 60 to 65 years retirement age in each of the next five years.
§ Mr. Alfred MorrisClause 12 of the Miscellaneous Provisions Bill at present before Parliament is concerned only with beneficiaries under the former vehicle scheme. It does not cover out-of-phase applicants under the new arrangements which became effective at the beginning of 1976. There are, therefore, no proposals to incur extra costs in respect of the latter group.
