HC Deb 18 January 1982 vol 16 c61W
Mr. Cartwright

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many estates have so far been designated by his Department as having expensive central heating systems requiring additional payments to supplementary benefit recipients living on them.

Mrs. Chalker

This information is not collected centrally. I hope shortly to have concluded the consideration to which I referred in my reply of 30 March 1981 to the hon. Member—[Vol. 2, c.30]—and I shall inform the House in due course of the outcome.
