HC Deb 18 April 1995 vol 258 c112W
Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many people in each of the last five years received help with NHS prescriptions under the low income scheme. [19396]

Mr. Malone

This information is not available. Information on free prescriptions is collected for the numbers of prescribed items dispensed, rather than for the numbers of people to whom the prescriptions are dispensed.
