HC Deb 01 August 1946 vol 426 cc246-7W
Mr. Boyd-Carnenter

asked the Minister of Food what medical advice he has obtained as to the adequacy of food ailoca-tions at present made to tubercular sanatoria.

Mr. Strachey

I am guided on all medical matters by the Food Rationing (Special Diets) Advisory Committee of the Medical Research Council and the Committee has always kept in very close touch with the Tuberculosis Association and the National Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, on all matters pertaining to this disease. The Special Diets Committee is satisfied with the provisions which are being made for tubercular sanatoria under present circumstances, and these provisions are approved by the assications I have mentioned.
