HC Deb 20 July 1964 vol 699 c13W
51. Mr. Gower

asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance if he will reconsider the case of Mr. L. J. A. Richardson of 340, Barry Road, Barry, who was formerly paid industrial injury benefit at 30 per cent., in the light of recent correspondence from the hon. Member for Barry.

Lieut.-Commander Maydon

As I have explained to my hon. Friend the responsibility for determining a claim under the Industrial Injuries Acts rests with independent statutory authorities, and my right hon. Friend has no power to intervene in their decisions.
