§ 38. Mr. Leachasked the Postmaster- General whether volunteers in his Department are still undergoing tests for tuberculosis; how many have been tested to date; and what are the reults of these experiments?
§ Major TryonVolunteers are still undergoing tests and up to date 560 have been tested. The results are not communicated to the Department.
§ Major TryonI cannot give the results because the results of the inquiries are not communicated to me but to the College of Physicians, who are undertaking the inquiry.
§ Mr. LeachCan the right hon. Gentleman say whether any claims for compensation are likely to arise?
§ Major TryonI am glad the hon. Member has raised that question, because of of the 560 Post Office volunteers none are known to have suffered any injury whatever.
