HC Deb 25 February 1952 vol 496 c93W
119. Sir I. Fraser

asked the Minister of National Insurance if he will take into account the special needs of the blind in his review of basic National Assistance allowances and supplementary allowances.

Mr. Peake

The National Assistance Regulations already make special provision for blind persons. Any review of the assistance scales is a matter for the National Assistance Board in the first instance.
