HC Deb 21 July 1949 vol 467 c69W
5. Mr. Langford-Holt

asked the Minister of Health to what extent his regulations made under the National Health Act make it compulsory for expectant mothers to go to a maternity clinic.

Mr. Bevan

I have made no regulations which make it compulsory for expectant mothers to attend clinics. I hope, however, they will realise that it is very much in their interest to do so.
