HC Deb 03 November 1994 vol 248 c1377W
Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what estimates his Department have made of the numbers of people in Wales who will be affected by the abolition of income support and unemployment benefit; and, of these, how many will lose their entitlement to benefit after six months, because they have savings or redundancy money or partners in full-time work; how many households will have their income reduced as partners are forced to give up work in order to meet the means test; and how many women will have a change in their status.

Mr. Roger Evans

I will write to the hon. Member shortly.
