§ Mr. Ieuan Wyn JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what steps he has taken to evaluate(a) the adequacy of the level of benefit payments given to people who have been evicted from their homes as a result of falling into arrears with rent following alcohol abuse and (b) the effectiveness of advice given to such people by officers of his Department at benefit offices in England and Wales.
§ Mr. Peter LloydNone. Information is not available about people evicted from their homes in such circumstances. Should the hon. Member wish me to investigate a specific instance perhaps he would let me have fuller details.
