HC Deb 11 March 1976 vol 907 c297W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what action she has taken on the promotion material for Orovite 7, a copy of which has been sent to her by the hon. Member for Brent, South, which implies that this product is recommended by her Department.

Dr. Owen

My officials have been in touch with the company concerned, who have assured them that the Orovite 7 promotional material was not intended to imply that the product was recommended by my Department but to make the point that the ingredients were in accordance with the recommendations about vitamin intakes made in a report published by the Department in 1969. They have agreed that the phrase in question will be altered or deleted in any future promotional literature.
