HC Deb 19 October 1973 vol 861 cc341-2W
Dr. Summerskill

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he has studied the report by Margaret Wynn and Arthur Wynn, "Some Consequences of Induced Abortion to Children Born Subsequently"; and whether he will act upon its recommendations.

Sir K. Joseph

I am aware of this report, which was submitted by the authors as evidence to the Committee on the Working of the Abortion Act. The views expressed will no doubt be taken into account by the committee. I will consider if further action is needed when the report of the committee is received.
