Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) on what date he received the report of Lady Sharp's inquiry into the vehicle service for the disabled;

(2) what the cost would be to the Exchequer of implementing the recommendations made by Lady Sharp in the report of her inquiry into the vehicle service for the disabled;

(3) what recommendations were made by Lady Sharp in her report of her inquiry into the vehicle service for the disabled concerning the needs of disabled passengers.

I received the report on 5th October and am studying it. As to its recommendations and the cost of their implementation, I would ask the hon. Member to await publication of the report and the statement which I hope to make at that time.
