HC Deb 24 June 1991 vol 193 c407W
16. Mr. Harris

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what will be the impact on a typical family with two children of the last two increases in child benefit.

Mr. Jack

This year's increases mean that such a family will see their weekly tax-free income from child benefit rise by over 15 per cent. from £14.50 to £16.75.
