HC Deb 18 July 1966 vol 732 c13W
82. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware of the high prices charged by commercial firms for hearing aids, which many persons in need are unable to pay; and if he will set up an inquiry into this problem with a view to securing a reduction in such prices.

Mr. K. Robinson

No such inquiry is necessary since Medresco hearing aids are already available without charge under the National Health Service to all who need them.
