HC Deb 03 February 1971 vol 810 c371W
Mr. Eadie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what non-departmental advice he receives regarding the pathology of lung disease.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

It would be exceptional for me to require such advice in the exercise of my functions. If I did, I could obtain if from one of my standing advisory committees or through my consultant adviser from experts in the particular field. In so far as industrial lung disease is concerned, I would refer the hon. Gentleman to the reply given by the Secretary of State for Social Services on 2nd February about the advice which is made available to him on a Great Britain basis.—[Vol. 810, c. 1438.]
