Take-Up Of The Minimum Income Guarantee
EDM number 2 in 1999-00, proposed by Paul Flynn on 17/11/1999.
That this House applauds the Government's intention to ensure that all pensioners entitled to income support receive it, making it a genuine minimum income guarantee; notes that, although the minimum income guarantee was introduced in April 1999, the promised national programme of measures to maximise take-up is still awaited; and urges the Secretary of State for Social Security to announce that claims made by pensioners after the date of that announcement will be treated as having been made on that date and that arrears of benefit will be paid accordingly.
This motion has been signed by a total of 88 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
