HC Deb 28 January 1975 vol 885 cc93-4W
Mr. Grocott

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if she will issue a general circular to opticians reminding them of their responsibility to make their customers fully aware of the complete range of National Health Service spectacle frames before persuading them to purchase alternatives.

Dr. Owen

The main professional organisations have previously made their members aware of this responsibility, and I am asking them to reinforce the advice which they have already given. If my hon. Friend has any particular case in mind, perhaps he will write to me about it.
