HC Deb 13 October 1969 vol 788 c21W
Mr. Fortescue

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what further reply, other than an acknowledgement, he has sent to the Institute of Medical Laboratory Technology with reference to their comments of March, 1969, on the Report of the Zuckerman Committee on Hospital Scientific and Technical Services; and what action he proposes to take in the light of those comments.

Mr. Crossman

I am still considering the Report in the light of the comments received from hospital authorities, and from bodies representative of professional and staff interests, including those of the Institute. I hope to be able to make a statement fairly soon.
