HC Deb 23 October 1967 vol 751 c346W
34. Mr. Holland

asked the Minister of Health whether he will discuss with local authorities their arrangements for the registration of the names and addresses of disabled persons living in their areas, with a view to ensuring that these persons receive adequate help from the health and welfare services.

Mr. Snow

Registration reflects the numbers of handicapped people who at any time are seeking and receiving help, and I am sure that local authorities fully recognise their responsibility to offer any necessary services.
