HC Deb 16 June 1969 vol 785 c62W
Mr. Norwood

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement about the policy of Her Majesty's Stationery Office in Norwich as to the employment of blind persons; and if he will consider giving employment to the person whose name has been sent to him.

Mr. Taverne

I have written to the hon. Member to explain that while Her Majesty's Stationery Office gives preference to registred disabled applicants—including the blind—there is at present not enough suitable work in the Norwich establishment of Her Majesty's Stationery Office for the person whose name has been submitted.
