HC Deb 13 July 1948 vol 453 c94W
Mr. Viant

asked the Minister of Health what were the numbers in 1945, 1946, and 1947 of infants born, infants dying before vaccination age, infants vaccinated, infants exempted, and infants neither vaccinated nor exempted; and what was the percentage of vaccinations in each of those years.

Mr. Bevan

The figures in respect of the years 1945 and 1946 as returned by vaccination officers are:

offered to the highest medical bidder, irrespective of other claims; and whether, as this essentially involves selling a medical practice, he will make a statement.

Mr. Bevan

This is a new house and no question of the sale of a medical practice arises.
