HC Deb 30 November 1939 vol 355 c283W
Sir R. Glyn

asked the Secretary for Mines whether he will consider making some special provision for the supply of petrol to disabled ex-service men who are entirely dependent on mechanical chairs, having a special licence, to get about to their work, in view of the fact that there are instances where men are immobilised for lack of fuel?

Mr. Lloyd

Special arrangements of the kind suggested already exist. I am not aware of any instances where users of invalid carriages have been unable to obtain an adequate allowance of petrol to meet their needs, but if my hon. Friend will let me have particulars of any cases I shall be glad to investigate them.
