HC Deb 02 December 1983 vol 49 c652W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what changes he proposes to make in the arrangements for full or partial remission of optical charges on grounds of low income.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

None, at the moment. Future policy for providing a free or subsidised optical service for those on low income will be based on the provisions of the Health and Social Security Bill presented today.
