§ Mr. Alfred Morrisasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether information as to the percentage award of disablement benefit given in the most recent cases of prescribed disease No. 39 (a) where a cystectomy has been performed and (b) where a cysto-urethrectomy has been performed is available to any persons representing him or his Department at appeals to the adjudication authorities.
§ Mr. PrenticeNo centralised record of awards in cases of the types cited is available. It would not therefore be possible to give the adjudication authorities any general information about them.
However, an officer of the Department appearing before a medical appeal tribunal might be aware of a local case and would be able to give the tribunal details of it.
