HC Deb 25 November 1981 vol 13 c415W
Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if credits for retirement pensions will be given in respect of employees receiving statutory sick pay which is below the lower earnings level for national insurance contributions.

Mr. Rossi

Credits for national insurance purposes will be available under the existing rules for those recipients of statutory sick pay who need them to make up their contribution record for the tax year in which incapacity occurs.
