56Colonel DAY asked the Minister of Health whether, seeing that Westminster Hospital has provided facilities enabling mothers to be accommodated in the hospital to nurse back to health their babies who have undergone serious surgical operations, and that many similar operations are performed in different parts of the country at institutions governed by the local boards of guardians, he is prepared to recommend to local unions the advisability of making provision for such cases, in order that every endeavour shall be made to save the lives of those babies who have to undergo these operations?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI am not aware of the nature of the arrangements to which the hon. and gallant Member refers, but I am making inquiries in the matter and will communicate with him further.
