HC Deb 22 October 1985 vol 84 c127W
48. Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many submissions he has received to date relating to the social security reviews; and broadly, how many of these are in support of the Government's proposals, and how many are opposed to them.

Mr. Newton

More than 7,000 responses to the Green Paper on social security had been received by 21 October. We are still considering and analysing these responses.
