History: The Ministry of Social Security was established in August 1966 under the Ministry of Social Security Act 1966. This dissolved the Ministry of Pensions and National Insurance and the National Assistance Board, and provided for transfer of their functions to the Minister of Social Security, except for certain powers transferred to a new Supplementary Benefits Commission. In November 1968, following the report of the Fulton Committee on the Civil Service, the Department of Health and Social Security (DHSS) was created by merger of the Ministries of Health and Social Security.
