§ Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if, in view of its contamination with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, he will ask the Committee on the Safety of Medicines to carry out a review on the use of hexachlorophene as a bactericide for direct use on the person, particularly the 511W female person, and of its use as an antiseptic in hospitals and in dental practice.
§ Dr. VaughanNo. I am not aware of any fresh evidence which would justify a further review.
