HC Deb 02 May 1966 vol 727 c77W
Mr. Monro

asked the Postmaster General whether he will commemorate the 120th anniversary on 19th December, 1966, of the first surgical application of anaesthesia, which took place at the Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary. by the issue of a postage stamp.

Mr. Benn

The stamp programme for 1966 was finalised some months ago and I am afraid that it is too late to add this subject to it now.
