HC Deb 22 July 1946 vol 425 c1700
Mr. Key

I beg to move, in page 39, line 32, to leave out "medical and dental".

Again this Amendment arises out of consideration in Committee. It gives the Minister power to arrange for refresher courses for pharmacists and opticians and other people who are employed, as well as doctors and dentists. My right hon. Friend gave an undertaking in Committee that this matter would be looked into. The Amendment has been put down as a result. It may be noted that the Clause relates only to people mentioned in Part IV. For others, there is already in force provision for them to follow the usual practice whenever they allow their employees to go away on refresher courses, and to continue to pay salaries and expenses for that purpose.

Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendments made:

In page 39, line 33, leave out from "providing," to "to," in line 34, and insert: any services under this Part of this Act.

In line 35, leave out "medical or dental," and insert "professional."

In line 38, leave out "medical or dental," and insert such."—[Mr. Key.]

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
