§ Mr. Grovesasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the necessity for the existence of 67 municipal clinics in Glasgow for the purpose of diphtheria immunisation, having regard to the fact that the average number of children attending them is 24 per day per clinic?
Mr. JohnstonThe clinics in Glasgow at which diphtheria immunisation is performed are also in use for other medical 217W purposes, only one or two sessions weekly of 2-2½ hours being held at each clinic for immunisation. Sessions are held at 36 clinics in all and in a recent period of seven weeks the average attendance was 99 children per session.
