HC Deb 10 May 1988 vol 133 c90W
Mr. Barry Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services what information is provided to claimants about the criteria for encashment of green giros at Crown post offices.

Mr. Portillo

Guidance on the encashment of green giros is given on the reverse of the giro and on posters displayed in Post Offices. The Post Office clerk must be satisfied in each case that the conditions for payment have been met.
