Mr. Barry Jones
asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on follow-up help for those given National Health Service hearing aids.
Mr. Mark Robinson
Recipients of NHS hearing aids are entitled to replacement batteries and all repairs and servicing of those aids free of charge. The extent to which further follow-up help is provided is a matter for determination by individual district health authorities, in the light of perceived needs and priorities.
