HC Deb 15 December 1965 vol 722 c278W
81. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Postmaster-General if he will reduce the charge for installing a transistorised hand-set in the case of persons who have qualified for a hearing aid from the Ministry of Health.

Mr. Benn

No charge is made for fitting on a new installation. The normal change of instrument charge of 30s., payable when a special visit is necessary, does not cover costs and I am sorry I cannot accept my hon. Friend's suggestion.
