Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will make a statement on the impact uprating the war widows' children's allowance by the increase in the retail prices index and deducting any increase in child benefit will have on the combined value of these benefits.

Mr. Jack

The result of uprating war widows' children's allowances by the increase in the retail price index and deducting the proposed increase in child benefit would be a combined weekly benefit value of £22.10 per child.
