§ Mrs. Wiseasked the Secretary of State for Social Services when he proposes to issue a revised version of leaflet M11; and if he will ensure that the re-issue contains a clear statement that young people of 16 years and over can claim exemption from prescrpition charges, based on their own low income and irrespective of their parents' income, whether or not they are in full-time education.
§ Mr. Orme:A new edition of leaflet M11 is published whenever there is a rise 68W in supplementary benefit scale rates, the latest of which took place last month.
I will bear in mind my hon. Friend's helpful suggestion if a reprint of this leaflet becomes necessary, and when the next new edition is published.
