HC Deb 25 October 1999 vol 336 c727W

Mr. Randall

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what recent representations he has received on incapacity benefit. [93771]

We have received a number of representations about our proposals to modernise the rules for the Incapacity Benefit. We believe the proposals are right in principle. We have made it clear that we will consider concerns when we finalise the details.
