HC Deb 19 March 1984 vol 56 cc378-9W
Mr. Ralph Howell

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what would be the total saving in expenditure if child allowance were to be paid at full rate to those parents whose income is less than two-thirds the national average wage and at half rate to those parents whose income is between two-thirds the national average wage and the national average wage and no payment was paid to those parents whose income is above the national average wage.

Mr. Newton

I shall let my hon. Friend have a reply as soon as possible.
