HC Deb 23 May 1928 vol 217 c1884
79. Mr. F. ROBERTS

asked 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 TRYON

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and the second part does not, therefore, arise.

Mr. ROBERTS

Has the right hon. Gentleman had any number of complaints reaching him as to the cause of this question?

Major TRYON

I have no idea why the right hon. Gentleman put down the question, which is obviously framed under a misapprehension.

Mr. ROBERTS

If I supply my right hon. Friend with the basis of the information, will he look into the matter?

Major TRYON

Most gladly.
