HC Deb 11 June 1974 vol 874 cc500-1W
Mr. MacFarquhar

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether she will consider authorizing the use of concessionary bus tokens for use for taxis in cases where people are unable to get to bus stops due to infirmities.

Mr. Alfred Morris

I am carrying out an overall review of the mobility needs of disabled people generally following publication of Lady Sharp's report, and will consider the suggestion, but it is unlikely in present circumstances that I shall be able to regard this particular provision as commanding a high priority.
