HC Deb 01 July 1968 vol 767 c164W
Mr. Edward M. Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity how many sheltered workshops for epileptics exist in Scotland, England and Wales, respectively; and how many people are employed in these workshops.

Mr. Fernyhough

There is only one sheltered workshop specifically for epileptic men and women; it is in Scotland, and employs 46 people. But many other people suffering from epilepsy are employed by Remploy Ltd. and other sheltered workshops.
