HC Deb 26 July 2000 vol 354 c695W
Mr. Willetts

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if it is his policy that, when the Disabled Persons Tax Credit is replaced in 2003, the Employment Tax Credit will be paid to childless disabled people. [132697]

Dawn Primarolo

Final decisions on the precise details of the ETC will be taken nearer the time of its introduction. When the new credits are introduced in 2003 payments to the working disabled will continue to be made to both those with and without children.
