HC Deb 29 July 1937 vol 326 c3333W
Mr. Leach

asked the Minister of Health whether he can state approximately how many boroughs, county boroughs, and counties have a diphtheria immunisation scheme in operation in England and Wales?

Sir K. Wood

I have no complete information on this subject, but I understand that some action with regard to immunisation against diphtheria is taken by the Councils of approximately 74 county boroughs, 117 non-county boroughs, 28 metropolitan boroughs and five counties in England and Wales.
