HC Deb 10 March 1959 vol 601 c103W
83. Mr. Goodhart

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs whether he will now allow the Beckenham Borough Council to make a contribution to meet part of the running costs at a foot clinic for old people organised by the British Red Cross Society.

In view of the recent statement by my right hon. and learned Friend the Minister of Health that he is ready to approve proposals by local health authorities which wish to provide a chiropody service as part of the National Health Service, I can now agree to the contribution proposed by the Beckenham Borough Council. The council has been so informed.
