§ 30. Mr. van Straubenzeeasked the Minister of Health whether he will adjust the grants for student radiographers so as to bring them into line with other student grants.
§ Mr. van StraubenzeeWill the hon. Gentleman urge on his right hon. Friend that a simple adjustment in this matter would bring particular benefit to those in this profession who come from poorer homes and would be of great help?
§ Mr. SnowYes, Sir. The present system of grant was designed to match the local training for which there are more than 100 schools permitting students to live at home. The present system has not been unsuccessful, but we are looking at it.
