asked the Minister of Health if he will issue tricycles for two persons to disabled persons.

I am not satisfied that the additional cost involved would be justified under present circumstances.

asked the Minister of Health the cause of the shortage of components for repairing disabled persons' electric tricycles; and what steps are being taken to overcome this shortage.

I understand that the delay has been due partly to the manufacturers of component parts and partly to the reorganisation of the maker's own works. It is however now expected that all outstanding orders will be met within three weeks.

asked the Minister of Health when Mr. G. Wild, of 230, Darnall Road, Sheffield, is likely to have his electric tricycle repaired.

I am informed that Mr. Wild's tricycle has now been repaired and it is being returned to him.
