HC Deb 29 January 1973 vol 849 c313W
Mr. William Price

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how long he has now been in possession of the Foster Report on scientology; and what action he has taken.

Sir K. Joseph

I have been asked to reply.

The report was submitted to me in April 1971. It was published in December 1971, and since then I have been consulting professional organisations about the recommendation that psychotherapy should be statutorily regulated, and have been considering their comments. I shall in due course announce the Government's decisions on this and the other recommendations in the report.
