HC Deb 20 March 1961 vol 637 c15
32. Mr. Russell

asked the Minister of Health when he expects to receive the report of the Standing Medical Advisory Committee on the organisation of casualty services.

Mr. Powell

By early next year.

Mr. Russell

Would it not be a good thing not to carry out the down-grading of certain hospitals, such as the Wembley Hospital for example, until this report is received?

Mr. Powell

I am not aware of the point which my hon. Friend has in mind, but I will gladly look at it with him.

Mr. Russell

I thank my right hon. Friend.
