HC Deb 11 November 1974 vol 881 c40W
Mr. Michael McGuire

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, in view of the fact that the area and district authorities in Lancashire have failed to solve the problem, she will now take steps to restore full medical cover to those patients who, because of a dispute between the three doctors concerned at the Digmoor Health Centre, Skelmersdale, Lancashire, are at present without such cover; and if she will make a statement.

Dr. Owen

My information is that normal services were resumed on 31st October and that full cover has been maintained since then; but I am continuing to keep in close touch with the situation.
