HC Deb 08 June 1959 vol 606 c64W
64. Mr. Hamilton

asked the Minister of Health whether he will now implement the recommendation of the 1949 Report of the Royal Commission on Population that the giving of advice on contraception to married persons who want it should be accepted as a duty of the National Health Service.

Mr. Walker-Smith

I am not at present intending to widen the scope of the facilities already available for this purpose under the National Health Service.
