HC Deb 13 July 1953 vol 517 cc132-3W
Mr. Mitchison

asked the Minister of Health in what cases, and under what statutory provisions, he has imposed limits on the amounts recoverable by persons performing public duties in respect of financial loss or of travelling or subsistence expenses incurred by them; and what are the limits in each case.

Mr. Iain Macleod

The amounts recoverable are governed by Regulations and directions made under the National Health Service Acts, 1946 and 1949, the Nurses Act, 1949, and the Midwives Act, 1951. I am sending copies of the relevant Regulations and directions to the hon. Member.
