HC Deb 11 July 1978 vol 953 c461W
25. Mr. MacKay

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he is satisfied with present arrangements relating to attendance allowances for relatives of kidney machine patients.

Mr. Alfred Morris

I am at present awaiting a decision from the national insurance commissioner on an application for leave to appeal against a decision from the Attendance Allowance Board in a case concerning a haemodialysis patient's entitlement to attendance allowance. It would be inappropriate for me to comment before the commissioner's decision is known.
