HC Deb 27 January 1969 vol 776 c208W
49. Mr. Roebuck

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will set up an inquiry to determine the desirability of the practice of printing on the containers of certain medical remedies the antidote for poisoning, as a means of safeguarding children.

Mr. Snow

This could be considered by the bodies to be set up under the Medicines Act, but present advice is that such labelling might on balance be harmful by leading to delay in obtaining medical attention.
