HC Deb 02 December 1968 vol 774 c237W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will issue advice to hospitals on whether to purchase a slot machine for the collection of prescription charges at a cost of £210, to hire one at a charge of £20 per annum upwards, or to employ additional staff.

Mr. Ennals

This has been done. I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of the advice issued.
