Mr. Groves

asked the Minister of Health how many medical officers of health are members of the six committees which are advising him on medical matters; how many meetings have been held of each committee during the year ending on the 30th September, 1941; and on how many occasions has each medical officer of health been present?

Mr. E. Brown

Of the six committees, particulars of which were given in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for London University (Sir E. Graham-Little) on 2nd October, the Central Medical War Committee includes one Medical Officer of Health who has attended each of the two meetings held in the year ended 30th September, and the Advisory Emergency Hospital Medical Service Committee also includes one Medical Officer of Health, who has attended two out of the four meetings held in the year. No such officers are members of the other four Committees.
