One-parent Families (Hansard, 19 July 1982)

HC Deb 19 July 1982 vol 28 c25W 25W

§ Miss Richardson
asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will list the recommendations of the Finer committee on one-parent families which relate to the work of his Department showing whether the recommendation (a) has been implemented, (b) is under consideration or (c) was rejected.

§ Mr. Alison
The report of the Finer committee made six recommendations which are the responsibility of the Department of Employment. These are:

178

181

182

185

186

187

These have all been implemented. In addition, recommendation 179 and 180 touch on the work of the Department; however they are addressed to employers and unions, who therefore have the primary responsibility for their implementation.
