HC Deb 11 February 1963 vol 671 cc130-1W
63. Miss Lee

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware of the dissatisfaction caused to Health Service patients by the provision of types of hearing aid now obsolete; and what would be the additional cost of providing all deaf persons with the lighter and less obtrusive models now available.

Mr. Braine

Replacement of all valve aids by transistor aids is in progress and proceeding as fast as production and fitting allow.
