HC Deb 10 February 1944 vol 396 c1884
19. Mr. McNeil

asked the Minister of Health whether he can give any recent comparative figures to show whether tuberculosis mortality and new cases are increasing, decreasing or remaining stationary in England and Wales and Scotland, respectively.

Mr. Willink

As the reply involves a number of figures, I will, with permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

Following is the reply:

The following table, in which the particulars relating to Scotland have been supplied by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State, gives comparative figures for all forms of tuberculosis in recent years.
