Dentistry
Mr. Blunkett : To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many dentists who have not given notice to leave the dental list have given written notice to each FHSA to deregister some or all of their continuing care arrangements for adult patients in each week since 20 November 1992 ; how many dentists have deregistered patients ; and how many patients have been deregistered.
Dr. Mawhinney [holding answer 29 April 1993] : The information requested is given in the table. The information provided weekly by family health services authorities since July 1992 shows that in the period up to 23 April 1993, 1,842 dentists have given notification to deregister 437,352 adult patients.
In the period 1 July 1992 to 28 February 1993, the total number of adult patients registered with a dentist in England has increased by 0.648 million, 3.1 per cent. from 20.580 million to 21.228 million. This increase has occurred over a period during which dentists have deregistered 0.4 million patients and where over 2.4 million registrations have lapsed because the patient has not visited the dentist in the last two years.

European Court of Justice
Mr. Jenkin : To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what additional provision for annual recurring expenditure in his Department has been made following rulings of the European Court of Justice in each year since the implementation of the Single European Act.
Miss Widdecombe : Special provisions are made only on a case-by-case basis, for annual recurring expenditure as a result of cases referred to the European Court of Justice. None of these cases arose as a result of the Single European Act, which does not contain any specific measures relating to social security. Provision for expenditure since 1 July 1987 is in the table.

Disability Living Allowance
Mr. Winnick : To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what action the Government intend to take following the statement by the Under- Secretary of State in a letter dated 7 April to the hon. Member for Walsall, North that local authorities including Walsall were in breach of the law as regards the concessionary fares for those in receipt of the disability living allowance.
Mr. Scott : Walsall council has undertaken to ensure that its concessionary travel scheme complies with the law. We intend to remind all local authorities that, in accordance with section 73(14) of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992, they must not refuse concessionary fares, or levy a contribution towards the cost of them, specificallly because a person receives the mobility component of disability living allowance.
Non-contributary Benefits
Mr. Higgins : To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will list the social security and other benefits available at national, county and local level, to which persons arriving in the United Kingdom are and are not entitled if they have not paid United Kingdom taxes or national insurance contributions.
Mr. Burt : The administration of benefits in Great Britain is a matter for Mr. Michael Bichard, the chief executive of the Benefits Agency. He will write to my hon. Friend with such information as is available and a copy will be placed in the Library. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland is responsible for the arrangements in Northern Ireland.
Letter from Michael Bichard to Mr. Terence Higgins, dated 7 May 1993 :
Column 300
As Chief Executive of the Benefits Agency it is my responsibility to answer questions about relevant operational matters. I am therefore replying to your recent Parliamentary Question to the Secretary of State for Social Security asking if he will list the Social Security and any other benefits available at national, county and local level, to which persons arriving in the United Kingdom are and are not entitled to if they have not paid United Kingdom taxes or National Insurance contributions.I should point out that, although benefits may be administered locally they are national benefits. I enclose a copy of leaflet FB2 which lists all social security benefits which are available. Entitlement is dependent on a person's individual circumstances. Most Social Security benefits employ a residence or contribution test and so are not immediately available to those entering Great Britain. However, the usual entitlement conditions may be modified if the applicant has either come from an EC country and is able to take advantage of EC regulations concerning Social Security for migrant workers or has come from a country with which the United Kingdom has concluded a Reciprocal Social Security Agreement.
Income Support is an exception since it has to serve as a safety net. Entitlement depends on immigration status. All those people who have a right to live in the UK permanently, including those who have been granted refugee status, may receive benefit if they satisfy all other relevant conditions of entitlement. It would be inconsistent to allow people to make their home in this country and then deny them financial support in times of need.
People who are applying for refugee status, that is asylum seekers, are not entitled to benefits under the normal rules. However, decisions on refugee status are very complex and take a long time to determine. While these questions are being considered, such customers can receive Income Support at a reduced rate under the Urgent Cases Rules.
All Benefits Agency offices have comprehensive written guidance on how to deal with claims from people from abroad. Our procedures for processing such claims involve close liaison with the Home Office Immigration and Nationality Department.
I also understand that these people can claim Housing Benefit from their Local Authority subject to the normal rules but this may affect their right to stay in the country.
I hope this information is helpful. A copy will appear in the Official Report and a copy will also be placed in the Library.
Income Support
Mrs. Beckett : To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security how many claimants of income support there are (a) in total, (b) who are single parents, (c) who are signing on as unemployed, (d) who are disabled and (e) who are pensioners (i) at each of the Benefits Agency offices having customers in Derbyshire and (ii) who are resident in Derbyshire.
Mr. Burt : The administration of Income Support is a matter for Mr. Michael Bichard, the chief executive of the Benefits Agency. He will write to the hon. Member with such information as is available and a copy will be placed in the Library.
Letter from Michael Bichard to Mrs. Margaret Beckett, dated 7 May 1993 :
As Chief Executive of the Benefits Agency it is my responsibility to answer questions about relevant operational matters. I am therefore replying to your recent Parliamentary Question to the Secretary of State for Social Security asking how many claimants of Income Support there are (a) in total, (b) who are single parents, (c) who are signing on as unemployed, (d) who are disabled and (e) who are pensioners (i) at each of the Benefits Agency offices having customers in Derbyshire and (ii) who are resident in Derbyshire.
The complete range of information requested is not available except at a disproportionate cost. This is because
Column 301
information regarding the number of Income Support recipients who are either lone parents or disabled are not routinely collected, nor do we collect information on the basis of county of residence. I have appended the latest available statistics relating to each of the Benefits Agency offices in Derbyshire. The figures relating to those customers who receive either a lone parent or a disability premium will not equate exactly to the number of lone parents or disabled people. This is because a single parent may be in receipt of a more advantageous premium, and a person in receipt of a disability premium may not necessarily be registered as disabled. You should also note that, for Income Support purposes, a pensioner is a person of either sex aged 60 or more.I hope you find this reply helpful. A copy of this letter will appear in the Official Report and a copy will also be placed in the Library.

Domestic Violence
Mr. Jon Owen Jones : To ask the Attorney General what guidelines the Crown Prosecution Service has on prosecutions in cases of domestic violence.
The Attorney-General [pursuant to his reply, 2 March, Official Report, c. 76] : The Crown Prosecution Service has updated its guidance to staff on the review and prosecution of domestic violence cases.
The service has provided a copy of its statement of prosecution policy on domestic violence to the Home Affairs Committee inquiry on domestic violence and copies have been placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
The service is distributing the policy statement to interested agencies.
