HC Deb 23 November 1964 vol 702 c146W
Sir K. Joseph

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what arrangements he has made to co-ordinate the social services.

Mr. Houghton

As the right hon. Gentleman knows, it is not the practice to disclose the methods which Ministers adopt for discussing matters of common concern, but the work of co-ordination is proceeding in close co-operation with the individual Ministers responsible for administering the social services.
