HL Deb 17 June 1991 vol 530 cc3-4WA
Lord Carter

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What steps they are taking to improve a situation where in 1990 87.7 per cent. of appeals to the social security commissioners concerning mobility allowance found that decisions of medical appeal tribunals were erroneous in law.

Lord Henley

The responsibility for the conduct and administration of medical appeal tribunals lies with the President of Social Security and Medical Appeal Tribunals, His Honour Judge Derek Holden. The noble Lord may care to contact his office direct to obtain this information.
