HC Deb 20 December 1945 vol 417 c1682W
Sir H. Webbe

asked the Minister of Supply and of Aircraft Production whether, in view of the reduction in the Services demand for penicillin now that the war is over, the supply of this drug now available can be freed for civilian use.

Mr. Wilmot

The demands of the Services for penicillin are still substantial and we are, of course, no longer receiving supplies under Lend-Lease. But production in this country is increasing and larger quantities are now being made available for civilian use.
