Mr. Hannam

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the latest estimate of the numbers of people involved full time in caring for elderly and disabled people at home; and how many of these are married or cohabiting women.

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will estimate the likely increase in the number of those caring for elderly and disabled people for the years up to 1985.

Mr. Rossi

There is insufficient information available on which to base a reliable estimate.
