§ Mr. Fisherasked the Minister of Health if he is aware of the shortage of film for dental X-rays; what is the reason; and what he proposes to do to alleviate this shortage.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftI have been asked to reply.
I am aware that the production of certain types of British X-ray dental film has not been able to keep pace with the constantly expanding demand. Further plant is under construction to step up the output and in the meantime no difficulties are placed in the way of importing foreign dental X-ray film from any source.
