§ 32. Commander Nobleasked the Minister of Health the total cost of medicine bottles supplied under the National Health Service in 1949.
§ Commander NobleAs the Minister will no doubt agree that it must be quite a large sum, does he not think there might be some economy in this direction if people were encouraged to return medicine bottles?
§ Mr. BevanI have consulted the chemists in this matter, and quite recently we made a reduction in their remuneration. They would rather have the reduction than try to work a system of the return of bottles.
