§ Mr. TurtonInformation is being collected, but this will take some time. It is too early to assess results or to decide upon publication.
§ Dr. JohnsonMay I thank my right hon. Friend for the trouble his Department is taking in this matter? is my right hon. Friend aware of the great 1049 anxiety about some of these cases, who are neither ill enough to be in mental hospitals nor entirely responsible enough to be in the outside world? Would he direct attention to the arrangements for after-care advice and supervision of all who have had this operation?
§ Mr. TurtonCertainly. We are looking into all those points.
