Retired Miners And Widows Lump Sum Payments

EDM number 504 in 1990-91, proposed by Alexander Eadie on 20/02/1991.

That this House calls on the Secretary of State for Social Security to treat lump sum payments, accepted by retired miners and their widows in commutation of their cash in lieu rights, under the capital rules, to bring an end to the ludicrous state of affairs where the adjudicating authority is likely to decide, in such cases, that a person opting for a lump sum payment has deprived themselves of a regular income for the purposes of obtaining benefit and consequently is to be deemed as if they are still in receipt of that income.

This motion has been signed by a total of 99 MPs.
