§ Mr. Ashleyasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the number of successful applicants to pneumoconiosis medical boards; and how this compares as a percentage with the number of successful applicants to all other types of industrial injury.
§ Mr. PrenticeI regret that information is not readily available from which the comparison requested can be drawn.
