§ Mr. Woodhouseasked the Minister of Health how many local authorities employ a health education officer; and how many of these have been trained as a cancer education officer.
§ Sir B. StrossLocal authorities organise their health education work in many different ways. I understand that about 50 authorities in England and Wales have designated an officer to take special responsibility, either whole-time or part-time, for organising health education. I am not aware of any special training in cancer education.
