HC Deb 08 April 1981 vol 2 c278W
Mr. Foulkes

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many staff, and at which grades, are wholly or partly employed in monitoring the prices of domestic and consumer items having a direct impact on either the level of social security benefits provided or the standard of living of those dependent upon Social Security benefits.

Mrs. Chalker

None, but we watch some prices, for example in connection with certain additions to supplementary benefit.
