HC Deb 07 February 1957 vol 564 c90W
Mr. Viant

asked the Minister of Health what payment has been made out of Government funds for the poliomyelitis vaccine used in May and June, 1956, and in December, 1956; and whether payment is based on the number of doses issued, or how is it calculated.

Mr. Vosper

Poliomyelitis vaccine is supplied under contract, and payment is based on the amount, in litres, of acceptable vaccine supplied. I regret that it would not be in accord with normal practice to furnish the figures of payments desired by the hon. Member.
