HC Deb 24 October 1979 vol 972 c219W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what guidance and advice he has given regarding the decision by a local authority to terminate the payment of telephone rentals of disabled persons from 1 February 1980; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Prentice

None; local authorities do not need reminding by me of the statutory position over provision of telephones.
