Mr. Burstow: To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what estimate he has made of the number of beneficiaries of the
uprating of the lower and upper capital limits for income support; and on what assumptions. [117519]
Mr. Bayley: We expect around 500,000 pensioners to gain from increasing the lower and upper capital limits for Income Support.
This estimate is based on figures obtained from the Policy Simulation Model (PSM) for Income Related benefits, based on 1997-98
Family Resources Survey data. This is uprated to reflect 2000-01 prices and benefit levels.
