§ Mr. Ernie Rossasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether limb-fitters are paid outer London weighting allowance.
§ Mr. PrenticeLimbfitters are almost all employees of private companies who supply artificial limbs under contract to the Department. I understand that those 715W working in the London area do receive an addition to salary. The one limb-fitter employed by the Department is part of the staff of the biomechanical research and development unit at Roehampton and he is paid outer London weighting.
