HC Deb 28 January 1964 vol 688 c28W
Mr. Boyden

asked the Lord President of the Council and Minister for Science to what extent the limiting factor in the development of medical research is now lack of qualified scientists rather than lack of money.

Mr. Hogg

Progress in medical research depends on new ideas of promise, which cannot be directly related to the supply of either scientists or money. However, I should expect the increasing number of qualified scientists to lead to the emergence of more first-class men and ideas, and thus to the continued expansion of medical research.
