HC Deb 09 May 1972 vol 836 cc310-1W
65. Mr. Alec Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what steps he is taking to increase the supply of physiotherapists in the National Health Service.

Sir K. Joseph

Numbers of physiotherapists in the National Health Service continue to increase, but besides increasing numbers I am interested in making the best possible use of the therapists we have and I hope to discuss these matters at a conference with the remedial professions on 18th May.
