§ Q8. Sir B. Rhys Williamsasked the Prime Minister if he will now re-establish the Department of Health as a separate Ministry; and if he will amalgamate the departments of the Treasury responsible for the taxation of personal incomes with the departments of the Department of Health and Social Security responsible for income support.
§ Mr. FootI have been asked to reply.
The hon. Member may assume that my right hon. Friend does not intend to make any changes in departmental organisation or responsibilities unless and until he makes a statement to the contrary.
