HC Deb 19 July 1977 vol 935 c434W
58. Mr. Townsend

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether it is still Government policy to nationalise sections of the pharmaceutical industry.

Mr. Ennals

As I stated in my reply to the hon. Members for Burton (Mr. Lawrence) and Beeston (Mr. Lester) on 30th November 1976—[Vol. 921, c. 97] —the Government have no plans to nationalise any section of the pharmaceutical industry.
