HC Deb 09 May 1972 vol 836 c353W
Mr. Wolrige-Gordon

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what guidance he has given to local authorities on the provision of telephones for the disabled.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

I am placing in the Library a copy of a circular which has been issued asking local authorities to have regard to certain medical and other criteria in considering whether to give any assistance towards the provision of telephones for severely disabled persons living alone.
