HC Deb 26 October 1977 vol 936 c731W
Mr. Reid

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what studies have been initiated into the effects of ingestion and inhalation of acrylonitrile monomer.

Mr. Moyle

I am advised that no studies on the effects of ingestion and inhalation of acrylonitrile monomer have been initiated in the United Kingdom. Some important studies have been carried out in the United States, and further studies are in progress there and in Italy. Reports on the findings are expected in 1978.
