HC Deb 28 June 1983 vol 44 c69W
Mr. John Fraser

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will amend the appropriate regulations so that a guardian's allowance may be paid to grandparents who care for a child whose father has murdered its mother and who has been found guilty but insane.

Mr. Newton

We have no plans to change the legislation on guardian's allowance, but if the hon. Member has a particular case in mind, perhaps he would be willing to let me have the details and I will then see what may be done to help the people concerned.
