HC Deb 27 February 1956 vol 549 c81W
47. Dr. Stross

asked the Minister of Health, in view of the fact that the total number of coal miners suspended from work in Great Britain owing to pneumoconiosis, together with tuberculosis, was 75, and that, of these 25 came from the West Midland division, whether he will offer the services of the mass radiography units in the area, so that all miners can be examined at the pithead for the presence of pulmonary tuberculosis.

The units have already visited all mines in Warwickshire and one in Shropshire and arrangements are[...]n hand for other visits. Requests for further visits will receive sympathetic consideration.
