HC Deb 07 November 1995 vol 265 c835W
Mr. Heppell

To ask the Secretary of Social Security what extra provision is and will be provided for the existing claimants who will lose benefit due to the change to incapacity benefit from invalidity benefit over the first three years in which incapacity benefit is paid. [41962]

Mr. Burt

Unemployment benefit and income-related benefits such as income support are available to those who are no longer incapable of work and who are seeking and available for employment. In addition, significant extra resources have been made available to the Employment Service over the first three years to fund back-to-work help for those leaving incapacity benefit.
