HC Deb 08 March 1988 vol 129 c163W
32. Mr. Andrew Bowden

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services what recent representations he has received regarding income support limits for elderly people in residential care and nursing homes.

Mr. Portillo

We have received a number of letters on the levels of the income support limits; in addition I recently met representatives of the National Confederation of Registered Residential Care Homes Associations and this issue was raised.
