HC Deb 12 February 1963 vol 671 c175W
Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Parliamentary Secretary for Science what proportion of the Medical Research Council's expenditure is devoted to mental illness; and how much of that sum is devoted to the study of schizophrenia.

Mr. Denzil Freeth

One twentieth of the Council's total expenditure was devoted to research on mental illness in the past financial year. It is not possible to estimate expenditure on research on schizophrenia alone.
