HC Deb 16 April 1946 vol 421 c437W
133. Mr. Watkins

asked the Minister of Health if he has reports of the Home Aid Service which is being used in New Zealand and if he will consider such a service in this country.

Mr. Key:

My right hon. Friend has, as yet, little information about the New Zealand Home Aid Service which has only recently begun to operate, but he has asked for reports. The service is, I believe, similar to that provided by many welfare authorities in this country. Proposals for the development of the services here are contained in Clause 29 of the National Health Service Bill now before the House.
