HC Deb 28 January 1963 vol 670 cc122-3W
Mr. K. Robinson

ask the Minister of Health what funds he has provided in each of the last three years for clinical research carried out in hospitals, apart from sums provided out of hospital authorities' free money.

Mr. Powell

Major research is not financed from my Department's Votes and information about the cost of clinical research done in the course of treatment is not available. Sums specifically allocated for locally organised hospital clinical research were £91,000 in 1960–61, £119,000 in 1961–62, and £187,000 in 1962–63.
