HC Deb 03 February 1949 vol 460 c250W
72. Brigadier Rayner

asked the Minister of Health if he will make a statement on the national morbidity inquiry which he has ordered to be made about all hospital patients.

Mr. Bevan

This inquiry is experimental, is limited to a few hospitals only, and is strictly confidential. Its object is to provide statistical information needed in considering many health problems.
