HC Deb 16 June 1947 vol 438 c161W
29. Mr. Skeffington

asked the Minister of Supply how many working parties have been formed for the medical supply industries; how such parties are composed; whether any have yet produced a report; and what action it is proposed to take on their recommendations.

Mr. Wilmot

There are no working parties for these industries, but four departmental panels have been set up to deal with X-ray equipment, medical and surgical equipment, scientific glassware and ophthalmic lenses. Reports have been received on the first three of these subjects and are now being examined.
