§ Mr. GROVESasked the Minister of Pensions, seeing that a record is kept in every area office of the number of men on treatment, whether he will state why it is not possible to give the House the number of pensioners in receipt of treatment who are not in receipt of treatment allowances?
§ Major TRYONThe hon. Member is, I fear, misinformed. No such record is kept, nor would the Ministry be in a position to know at any one time the cases receiving medical treatment except so far as such treatment is being given at. the cost of the Ministry or the patients are in receipt of allowances under Article 6 of the Warrant.
