Mr. Eldon Griffiths
asked the Secretary of State for the Social Services why family allowances have not been paid to Tony and Terry Roach of 6 Marlborough Court, Haverhill, Suffolk; and why the application for family allowances made in November 1976 and repeated on two subsequent occasions, has not been acknowledged.
Mr. Orme
An order book for the allowances due was sent to Mrs. Roach on 26th April, together with an apology for the delay. I shall be writing to the hon. Member in reply to his letter of 13th April as soon as our inquiries into the reasons for the delay have been completed.
