HC Deb 25 February 1960 vol 618 cc70-1W
Mr. Foot

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has considered a communication from the Central Council for the Care of Cripples pressing him to consider, in connection with the Budget, the payment of post-war credits to all those entered on the Ministry of Labour's register of disabled persons; what reply he has sent; and whether he will consider this proposal with a view to its inclusion in his forthcoming Budget statement.

Sir E. Boyle

My right hon. Friend has considered the communication to which the hon. Member refers and has undertaken to bear the suggestion in mind along with others that have been put to him, but he cannot make any statement at present.
