§ Mr. Mayhewasked the Minister of Health if he will grant to medical staff at colleges of higher education the right to prescribe drugs at National Health Service expense.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonWhere colleges of higher education are largely residential and the college medical officer is able to provide full medical care he may seek to contract with the Executive Council to provide this, including the issue of prescriptions for any drugs needed, under the National Health Service. In other cases it is more appropriate for responsibility to remain with the patient's family doctor.
