HC Deb 30 November 1976 vol 921 c97W
38. Mr. David Walder

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what plans he has to make disabled people more self-sufficient in their own homes.

Mr. Alfred Morris

I would refer the hon. Gentleman to my reply to the hon. Member for Morecambe and Lonsdale (Mr. Hall-Davis) today. The initiatives I mention in that reply must be complemented by other forms of help and my Department's consultative document "Priorities for Health and Personal Social Services in England" shows the importance we place on providing the wide range of help necessary to enable disabled people. where possible. to live in their own homes.
