HC Deb 26 January 1982 vol 16 c313W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will introduce legislation to repeal section 41 of the National Assistance Act 1948 relating to the registration of charities for disabled people by local authorities in view of its widespread disregard.

Mr. Raison

We have no plans for legislation at present.

Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is his estimate of the percentage of charities for the disabled not registered as required by section 41 of the National Assistance Act 1948.

Mr. Raison

Insufficient information is available on which to base such an estimate.
