HC Deb 21 July 1942 vol 381 c1411
59. Mr. Daggar (for Mr. Mort)

asked the Minister of Health whether he has considered a letter of protest against the new clothing order from the Swansea and District Old Age Pensioners Association; and what are his observations upon it?

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health (Miss Horsbrugh)

I have seen a copy of the letter referred to. As I have said, in answer to similar Questions by other hon. Members, the protest appears to be due to a misunderstanding of the purpose of the action now being taken by the Assistance Board.
