HC Deb 18 May 1973 vol 856 c406W
Mr. Bryant Godman Irvine

asked the Secretatry of State for Social Services if he will introduce legislation to ensure that those who have lived in a home for the elderly for a period exceeding 10 years shall not be evicted after reaching the age of 90 years unless some suitable alternative accommodation is found for them.

Sir K. Joseph

I do not consider such legislation is necessary. If my hon. Friend has in mind a particular case where evictions of this kind are taking place, I will gladly look into the matter if he will send me details.
