HC Deb 03 July 1958 vol 590 c1581
44. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what consultations he has had with the authorities concerned with the provision of morphia in the Port Medical Centre at Cardiff Docks and other dock areas: and when he expects to be able to announce his conclusions.

Mr. Renton

After consultation between the Home Office and other Departments concerned my right hon. Friend has decided, as a special case, to authorise the keeping of supplies of morphia for use by nurses in an emergency at port medical centres where suitable safeguards can be arranged. Details will be settled as soon as possible in consultation with the National Dock Labour Board.

Mr. Callaghan

Is the Joint Under-Secretary aware that I am extremely grateful to him?
