HC Deb 08 February 1977 vol 925 c647W
Mr. Geraint Howells

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he has any plans to give financial assistance for research in Wales into the causes and treatment of rheumatic diseases; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Barry Jones

The Welsh Office currently supports research on these diseases. Further projects submitted for support will be considered on their merits with other competing claims on the funds available.
