HC Deb 06 July 1955 vol 543 cc94-5W
59. Mr. Hastings

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will give an assurance that the proposal of the United States representative to the United Nations that information on the effects of atomic radiations on human beings should be collected and brought together will be supported by the British representatives, and full co-operation promised.

Mr. Nutting

Her Majesty's Government welcome this United States initiative and will take their full part in any discussion of this proposal in the United Nations. The Medical Research Council are preparing a report on the medical aspects of nuclear radiation which will be made available to any United Nations study of this problem.
