HC Deb 18 March 1948 vol 448 c259W
21. Mr. Haire

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power if he will relax his petrol regulations to enable hospitals, sanatoria and other similar institutions, especially in rural areas, to be visited by car by organised parties hitherto engaged on similar social service.

Mr. Gaitskell

Allowances are already given to officials and voluntary workers of recognised social service organisations for their work which, I understand, may include visiting such institutions as my hon. Friend has in mind. If he will let me know of any special difficulties which are being experienced, I shall be glad to look into them.
