HC Deb 22 March 1951 vol 485 c324W
76. Mr. Prescott

asked the Minister of Health what is the average period which elapses between an order being given for a person to be fitted with bi-focal glasses and their delivery; and what are the outstanding orders for the whole country as at the most recent convenient date.

Mr. Blenkinsop

Precise information in this form is not available; but broadly speaking, abnormal arrears have now been eliminated.
