Proceeding contribution from Linda Gilroy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 March 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Water Strategy.


Water Strategy

I am not sure whether the hon. Lady was as surprised as I was to discover how much people could gain from the work of the water affordability pilot, which, of course, included a benefits check. A third of the 462 people who received that check were eligible for an extra £33.98 a week. I hope that she will encourage her constituents, as I encourage mine, to establish whether they may be entitled to some of that financial help.
