HC Deb 14 June 1951 vol 488 cc201-2W
62. Sir H. Williams

asked the Minister of Health if he will make a statement with regard to the dismissal of Mr. John Griffith from the position of chief administrative officer to the St. Helier Group Hospital Management Committee.

Mr. Marquand

I would refer the hon. Member to the answers given to the hon. Member for Orpington (Sir W. Smithers) on 10th May and the hon. Member for Salford, East (Mr. Hardy) on 31st May. There is, however, no agreed procedure for employing authorities to follow in dealing with members of their staff who are the subject of disciplinary action, and until agreement is reached on the Health Services Whitley Council I am proposing to issue some guidance to employing authorities on this.
