HC Deb 03 November 1949 vol 469 cc74-5W
77. Mr. Sharp

asked the Minister of Health whether the campaign for due return of medicine bottles, as detailed in Health Executive Council Note 28 of August, 1949, has been effective; and whether, in order to make better use of existing bottles, he will authorise pharmacists to make a small charge which will be repaid by them on the return of the bottle.
