HC Deb 06 December 1949 vol 470 cc147-8W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the Minister of Health to what extent the allocation committee of the executive council can refuse to exempt a practitioner who, for any reason applies to them, from the liability to have persons assigned to him, and from the liability for emergency night calls to persons not on his list; and under what sanctions.

Mr. Bevan

An allocation committee has full discretion, subject to the terms of the allocation scheme for the area made under the General Medical and Pharmaceutical Services Regulations, 1948.
