HC Deb 11 April 1984 vol 58 c288W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has any plans to increase the 25p a week bath addition benefit.

Dr. Boyson

This addition is reviewed annually at the same time as the main supplementary benefit rates. It was last increased from 20p to 25p in November 1983 and the November 1984 rate will be made known together with other details of the 1984 uprating in due course.
