HC Deb 13 July 1965 vol 716 c52W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what assessment has been made by the Medical Research Council of the treatment of deafness by injections of vitamin B12 or a lipoflavinoid preparation; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Crosland

None, but I am advised that evidence from clinical practice to date does not suggest that these substances are particularly beneficial in this connection.
