§ Mr. BevanThe Committee has so far recommended 1,504 consultants for awards. It is not intended to publish a list.
§ 115. Colonel Stoddart-Scottasked the Minister of Health if the Medical Merit Awards Committee is a permanent committee; how far the chairmanship is intended to be permanent; and what sum it is proposed in future to pay the chairman.
§ Mr. BevanI am not sure what the hon. Member means by "permanent." So far as I am aware this is a continuing body and the remuneration of the chairman is to be reviewed at the end of the third year, for which he receives 2,000 guineas.
