HC Deb 08 April 1948 vol 449 c335
23. Mr. Sharp

asked the Minister of Health in what circumstances, after 5th July, 1948, old age pensioners and police pensioners will be entitled to free medical attention.

Mr. Bevan

These pensioners will be able to obtain the full range of the National Health Service in the same way as anyone else, and will soon be informed with the rest of the public of the steps they should take to obtain these facilities.
