HC Deb 03 August 1971 vol 822 cc252-3W
Dame Irene Ward

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will request the Tunbridge Committee to report not later than October in view of the fact that evidence given will otherwise be out of date by the time the Report is published.

Mr. Alison

As I told my hon. Friend when she came to see me on 1st March and as my right hon. Friend told her in his reply on 16th March, 1971, we hope to have this report before the end of the year. I know that the committee is fully seized of the desirability of an early report.—[Vol. 813, c.277.]
