Mr. Alfred Morris

The number of persons in receipt of attendance allowance at 30th September 1975 and at the end of the years 1971 to 1974 is as follows:

special facilities for merchant seamen, since seamen ordinarily resident in this country or serving on British ships are eligible to use the full facilities of the National Health Service, and emergency treatment under the National Health Service is available to the others.
