Mr. Granville

asked the Minister of Health whether his Department will take steps now to advise the public on the advantages of fresh air and exercise in preventing winter black-out debility, and also the right precautionary measures to avoid influenza and other epidemics injurious to the national war effort?

Mr. M. MacDonald

My Department will continue the policy of pressing forward the health education of the public, through the local health authorities and otherwise, and the steps taken cover the important matters to which my hon. Friend has drawn attention.
