HC Deb 10 March 1966 vol 725 c610W
6. Mr. Lipton

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will investigate the adequacy of medical arrangements in Her Majesty's Prisons.

Miss Bacon

The organisation and functions of the Prison Medical Service were the subject of a report published in 1964; and since then a systematic review has been undertaken of its staffing and other requirements. My right hon. Friend does not consider that a further enquiry is necessary.
