asked the Minister of Pensions whether men attending limb-fitting centres get no allowances for loss of time entailed by such attendances; and whether, in view of the hardship involved for men who have to attend several times for the fitting of a limb, he will take steps to get some alleviation?

Where a pensioner is required to attend as an out-patient at a limb-fitting centre, compensation for loss of remunerative time is paid on the usual scale. If the hon. and gallant Member has a particular case in mind, I shall be glad to inquire into it if he will let me have particulars.
