HC Deb 05 October 1944 vol 403 cc1154-5W
Mr. Jackson

asked the Minister of Health if he has in preparation any scheme to grant extra allowances to people suffering from tuberculosis who have been discharged from sanatoria so that they may be able to afford adequate treatment in their homes and not be forced to seek work in places where they may spread the infection.

Mr. Willink

The existing scheme extends to persons receiving approved treatment in their homes, subject to the same general conditions as apply to persons under treatment in sanatoria. If my hon. Friend has any individual case of difficulty in mind and will let me have particulars, I shall gladly look into it.
