HC Deb 19 July 1982 vol 28 cc48-9W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has completed his consideration of the wording and content of form BF 195 following the representations of the hon. and learned Member for Leicester, West.

Mr. Rossi

We have received a number of representations about form BF 195, none of which have been from claimants and none of which explained precisely what the deficiencies in the form are. Our officials are reviewing the procedures followed in cases where claimants are unable to provided primary evidence of a marriage upon which entitlement to benefit depends, and are considering a revision of form BF 195. We shall consult the Commission for Racial Equality on any such revision.
