HC Deb 25 May 1993 vol 225 c556W
Mr. Frank Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will list for each of the last five years the numbers of people receiving each social security benefit whose benefit was reviewed.

Mr. Burt

I understand from Mr. Michael Bichard, the chief executive of the Benefits Agency, that the information is not readily available and could be obtained only at a disproportionate cost.
