ROBERTSasked the Minister of Pensions whether any instructions have been issued by the Ministry to local medical officers to curtail the payment of treatment allowances as much as possible; and, if so, the terms of these instructions and the circumstances that have rendered their issue necessary?
§ Major TRYONThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and the second part does not, therefore, arise.
§ Mr. ROBERTSHas the right hon. Gentleman had any number of complaints reaching him as to the cause of this question?

§ Mr. ROBERTSIf I supply my right hon. Friend with the basis of the information, will he look into the matter?
§ Major TRYONMost gladly.
