HC Deb 11 December 1952 vol 509 c79W
60. Mr. Yates

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that there is still considerable discrepancy in the practice of doctors as to the number of prescriptions they put on one form; and if he will take steps to alter the doctors' terms of service to ensure that greater conformity is reached in this respect.

Mr. Iain Macleod

I am aware of this discrepancy, but I am not satisfied that an alteration in the doctors' terms of service would be an advantage.
