Family Income Supplement

Mr. Deakins
asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many families in Brighton and Leicester, respectively, currently receive family income supplement; what is the average weekly sum received by each family; and how many of these families are entitled to free school meals as a result.

Mr. Lyell
I regret this information is not available. Family income supplement claims are dealt with centrally by our office in Blackpool and no information is maintained about claims from particular local areas.
