HC Deb 17 December 1959 vol 615 c257W
Mr. Prentice

asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance whether he will amend Section 40 (1) of the National Insurance (Industrial Injuries) Act, so as to give a more comprehensive right of review of decisions of medical boards and medical appeal tribunals, following the interpretation of that Section by the Court of Appeal in the case of Regina v. Medical Appeal Tribunal, ex parte Hubble.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

No. I have studied the decision to which the hon. Member refers, and it appears to me to confirm what has been for some time the accepted view of the law.
