HC Deb 19 March 1984 vol 56 c375W
Mr. Foulkes

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will set a date for the publication of the Rayner report on patients' money.

Dr. Boyson

We do not propose to publish the Rayner report, which was primarily concerned with the pattern of deductions from the benefits of hospital in-patients. The proposals are still under consideration, but no major changes of policy will be made without appropriate prior consultation.
