HL Deb 12 January 1998 vol 584 cc150-1WA
The Countess of Mar

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What tests and medical examinations have been conducted by medical assessment programme doctors on Gulf veterans since the inception of the programme and on what dates any changes were made; and whether they intend to incorporate any new tests into the programme, and if so which.

Lord Gilbert

In the time available, it has not proved possible to obtain sufficient information properly to answer this Question.

I will write to the noble Countess as soon as our investigations are complete and a copy of my letter will be placed in the Library of the House.
