§ 51. Mr. Molsonasked the Minister of Food whether it is with his authority that an officer of his Department is circulating, on behalf of the Civil Service Sanatorium Society, literature relating to a "Grand Holidays Scheme," sanatorium treatment and staff welfare matters in envelopes marked, "On His Majesty's Service," and "Officially Paid," of which a sample has been sent to him.
§ Dr. SummerskillIt is quite proper to include literature on staff and welfare matters with official communications in officially paid envelopes. On the other hand, the distribution of a book of tickets for the "Grand Holidays Scheme" was improper, and I will see that it does not happen again.
§ Mr. MolsonIs the right hon. Lady aware that this is the second time that I have had to draw attention to the improper use by Ministry of Food officials of official envelopes of this kind? Would she take steps to see that it does not happen again?
§ Dr. SummerskillYes, Sir.
