§ Mr. McCrindleasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, in the light of the report, "The Long Pain", by the Arthritis and Rheumatism Council, a copy of which is in his possession, and because of the large number of days lost in industry through these complaints, he will consider making more funds available for research into combating them.
§ Sir K. JosephI have already declared my intention to give financial support to research in this field.
