§ Miss HorsbrughThe Committee referred to in the reply to my hon. Friend the Member for West Fulham (Dr. Summerskill) on 22nd October last was appointed by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland and my right hon. Friend to inquire into the organisation of medical schools. I cannot give a date for the report, but my hon. Friend will understand that the issues involved are of first rate importance and will demand some time for examination. The particular question mentioned by my hon. Friend is of course one only of the very large number of questions that will be considered by the Committee.
