Mr. Temple Morrisasked the Minister of Health whether according to his latest reports, sufficient certified midwives have been obtained in all the districts in 3014W Wales to work the State maternity scheme; and whether he can give any details?
§ Mr. ElliotI am sending my hon. Friend a statement showing the number of domiciliary midwives practising in Wales and their distribution between the areas of the different local supervising authorities. It would appear, on the latest information available to me, that an adequate number of domiciliary midwives has been provided for Wales.
