HC Deb 30 January 1967 vol 740 c7W
52. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Minister of Health what plans he has to implement the recommendations contained in the report published by his Department in 1956, entitled Medical Care of Epileptics (Cohen Report).

Mr. K. Robinson

I hope that the joint sub-committee of the Standing Medical Advisory Committee and the Advisory Council on the Health and Welfare of Handicapped Persons, to which I referred in my reply of 12th December to my hon. Friend the Member for Ilford, South (Mr. Arnold Shaw) will furnish me with advice on which I can base comprehensive guidance to hospital and local authorities on the future development and co-ordination of medical and welfare services for epileptics.—[Vol. 738, c. 20–1.]
