HC Deb 18 June 1956 vol 554 c61W
58. Dr. Barnett Stross

asked the Minister of Health, as representing the Lord President of the Council, whether he will instruct the Medical Research Council to embark upon research for the purpose of manufacturing a continuous recording machine, of an automatic type, which will give both the total sulphur content and the sulphur trioxide in the atmosphere.

Mr.Turton

Such research is a matter for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research rather than the Medical Research Council. I understand that the Atmospheric Pollution Research Committee of the Fuel Research Board is at present examining the problem of the continuous recording of sulphur compounds in the atmosphere.
