§ 76. Mr. D. Jonesasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what steps he is taking to make available on the island of Grenada an X-ray unit to make diagnosis in suspicious cases: and whether he is aware that the nearest ones available 36W are at Barbados and Trinidad, and beyond the financial resources of the greater part of the Grenada population.
§ Mr. LytteltonThe Grenada Government intends to replace the present X-ray, when funds are available with a more powerful modern unit including a special attachment for miniature chest films. The present machine is suitable for normal work and any need to transfer patients to Barbados or Trinidad is quite exceptional.
