HC Deb 29 July 1953 vol 518 c164W
91. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if leprosy is on the increase or decrease in Malaya; and to what extent the supply of the most recently discovered drug for dealing with this disease is being maintained to the two leper colonies in the Federation.

Mr. Lyttelton

I have no evidence that leprosy is on the increase in Malaya. Supplies of the latest proved drugs are ample.
