HC Deb 21 November 1951 vol 494 c382
56. Mr. George Chetwynd

asked the Prime Minister which Minister in the House of Commons is responsible for questions on the work of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research and for the Medical and Agricultural Research Councils.

The Prime Minister

I would refer the hon. Member to the statement I made after Questions yesterday.

Mr. Chetwynd

On a point of order. This was one of the Questions which was deferred at your request yesterday, Mr. Speaker. I believe that the right hon. Gentleman answered the first part dealing with the scientific and industrial research, but not the second part.

Mr. Speaker

Perhaps the hon. Gentleman could put down another Question.

The Prime Minister

I am sorry if I am not fully armed on that particular point. If the hon. Gentleman will put a Question down I will make sure it is answered satisfactorily.
