HC Deb 08 July 1943 vol 390 cc2247-8
33. Lady Apsley

asked the Minister of Health whether, in his negotiations for the establishment of a universal State medical service, voluntary medical institutes will, in view of their long-established activities and wide experience, be afforded an opportunity to co-operate?

Mr. E. Brown

In connection with the discussion for a comprehensive health service, I hope fairly soon to issue a general statement which may serve as a focus for the views of all interested bodies, and I have undertaken at that stage to get into touch with the Associations of Medical Aid Societies, to which I assume my hon. Friend is referring.
