HC Deb 21 April 1953 vol 514 c785
8. Major Anstruther-Gray

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is now in a position to state when the physiotherapy service previously available at Eyemouth, Berwickshire, will be restored.

Commander Galbraith

The matter is under review by the hospital authorities, and I shall write to my hon. and gallant Friend as soon as I have a further report from them.

Major Anstruther-Gray

Is my right hon. and gallant Friend aware that there was a very satisfactory service at Eyemouth before the passing of the Act and that any economies which may have been sought have been very much offset by the expense of transport in ambulances? Will he bear these facts in mind before coming to a decision?

Commander Galbraith

Yes, Sir.
