HC Deb 09 February 1994 vol 237 c366W
Mr. Etherington

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what plans he has to review the industrial injuries benefit scheme.

Mr. Scott

Last year, the Government announced a long-term review of social security expenditure. Under the long-term review, each part of the social security programme will be examined to ensure that the objectives are right for the 1990s. Nothing is exempt from that review.
