HC Deb 02 December 1968 vol 774 c1017
17. Mr. Campbell

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what action the Government expect to follow the completion of the field work in January of the study of the disabled being carried out by the Government Social Survey.

Mr. Grossman

This will largely depend on the results of the survey.

Mr. Campbell

Will the Government ensure that appropriate bodies are given the task of pursuing the next stages of this investigation, once the information about the disabled is available, in order to ensure that the impetus is maintained?

Mr. Crossman

I will certainly consider that suggestion. The survey will be a formidable affair, and tabulation and analysis will take some months. I will consider any proposals for the constructive use of the figures and statistics when we have obtained them.
