HC Deb 26 June 1981 vol 7 c207W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will consider making financial assistance available to further the work of the Alzheimer's Disease Society; and if he will make a statement.

Sir George Young

Yes, I am ready to consider this. Representatives of the society met officials of the Department on 28 May to discuss the aims and objectives of the society and the possibility of grant-aid under section 64 of the Health Services and Public Health Act 1968. An application from the society with relevant financial information is now awaited.
