Age Allowance Conversion

EDM number 643 in 1995-96, proposed by Jerry Hayes on 20/03/1996.

That this House believes that the 25 pence a week age allowance to pensioners 80 years of age and over is an insult to those who fought for their country in the last war and paid into the social security system; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to convert this allowance into an annual ú13 lump sum payment.

This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs.
