asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance if he has considered the cases of conflict that arise in South Wales between coroners' verdicts in cases of death suspected to be due to pneumoconiosis and the findings of medical boards; and what action he is taking to correct the anomalies which arise as the result of these conflicts in the administration of the Industrial Injuries Scheme.

Yes, Sir. I am now discussing this problem with my right hon. and learned Friend the Minister for Welsh Affairs.
