HC Deb 02 February 1976 vol 904 cc472-3W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what help has been given to children suffering from vaccine damage.

Mr. Alfred Morris

The full range of services and benefits available under the National Health Service. The personal social services and the social security system are also available to the families affected. Parents can now also apply for help to the Family Fund administered for the Government by the Rowntree Memorial Trust. As I said in my reply to the hon. Member for Exeter (Mr. Hannam) on 15th October last, I have decided to provide allocations for continuing the work of the fund at a level of £2 million a year.—[Vol. 897, c. 730.]
