§ Mr. Grovesasked the Minister of Health whether he will consult with the Minister of Home Security as to the need for steel helmets and service respirators to be provided for all medical practitioners in actual practice since they must be actively engaged whenever there is an air raid?
Mr. M. MacDonaldI have already been in communication with the Minister of Home Security on this matter and the arrangements under which any medical practitioner may obtain a steel helmet and civilian duty respirator were announced in August. I am sending the hon. Member a copy of that statement.
