§ Mr. EGANasked the Minister of Pensions what steps he has taken to put right those cases which have come to light, through medical treatment or otherwise, in which it is manifest that serious error has occurred in the making of final awards?
Mr. ROBERTSI am glad to be able to assure my hon. Friend that cases of the kind referred to by him are now in fact being put right by the Ministry, and448W the correct award, whether final or conditional made in lieu of the award which had erroneously been made final. Where a man claims to need treatment on account of his condition, his case will be considered if as a result of medical treatment and observation error is discovered. Such claims go in the ordinary course through the local offices of the Ministry.
