§ Mr. Greville Jannerasked the Secretary of State for Social Services in how many cases, in each of the months since the Attendance Allowance Board was created, application has been made to the board for oral hearings on fact, on law, and on fact and law, respectively.
§ Mr. DeanI am advised that apart from the case known to the hon. and learned Gentleman, the board's records include only one application for an oral hearing. This was made in October 1972, and related to questions of fact.
