HC Deb 22 March 1979 vol 964 cc710-1W
Mr. Fred Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what arrangements he has made for supplying to, and receiving information from REACH, the organisation representing parents of limbless children.

Mr. Alfred Morris

On 20 February I had the pleasure of meeting two representatives of REACH, one of them a constituent of my hon. Friend. Three days later, officials of my Department met representatives of the organisation's main committee. Both meetings provided a very useful exchange of information. Arrangements have been made for further meetings to take place as necessary and points of contact for both my Department and the organisation have been established.

I am sure this continuing rapport between my Department and this organisation of parents will prove invaluable.
