HC Deb 08 March 1991 vol 187 cc327-8W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security when and how he proposes to publish the research reports on consumer views of the attendance allowance medical examination, invalid care allowance, the preliminary study of people leaving certain long-stay institutions, consumer perceptions of personal pensions, information needs of informal advisers and housing benefit reviews, referred to in his answer to the hon. Member for Nottingham, North on 25 February, Official Report, columns 401–04.

Mr. Scott

Decisions have been reached in respect of two of the research subjects listed by the hon. Member. The preliminary study of people leaving certain long-stay institutions was a short information-gathering exercise only, and was not commissioned with a view to publication. Copies of the report on housing benefit reviews are available in the Library and the report will be published in the early summer.
