asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will place in the Library a document setting out the texts of sections 124, 125 and 126 of the Social Security Act 1975 (a) as originally enacted, (b) as amended by each subsequent enactment, (c) as proposed to be amended by the Social Security Bill and (d) as proposed to be amended by the. Social Security (No. 2) Bill.
I do not think that this is necessary.Copies of the Social Security Act 1975, as originally enacted, and of the Law relating to social security and family allowances—the Brown Book—are available in the Library of the House. Together, these set out the original texts of these sections and how they have been amended by subsequent Acts. The amendments to those sections proposed in the Social Security Bill and the Social Security (No. 2) Bill are explained in the notes on clauses of those Bills.
