HC Deb 16 November 1982 vol 32 c134W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what contact he or the Minister with special responsibility for the disabled has had with the South Atlantic fund with regard to help for Service men and Merchant Navy personnel who were disabled in the Falklands conflict and their families.

Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he or the Minister with special responsibility for the disabled has had any contact with the South Atlantic fund about helping Service men and Merchant Navy personnel who were disabled in the Falklands conflict and their families.

Mr. Rossi

None directly. I am, of course, aware of the progress being made by the fund, which, as an independent charity, is responsible for deciding who will receive payment.
