§ 67. Mr. Arnold Shawasked the Minister of Health whether he will give an assurance that hospitals conform to the necessary fire regulations.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonAll hospital authorities have comprehensive guidance from me about fire precautions and about protection of hospitals against fire. The recommendations contained in this guidance have been approved by the Home Office and ask hospitals to work in close consultation with the local fire authorities. Conformity in detail with this guidance and with the appropriate statutory requirements is a matter for the hospital authorities.
