HC Deb 15 March 1978 vol 946 c232W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he intends this Session to introduce a Bill to implement the recommendations of the Briggs Report on nursing.

Mr. Moyle

Because of the pressure of other parliamentary business, I regret that it will not now be possible to introduce a "Briggs" Bill this Session. The Government remain committed to such a Bill and will introduce it as soon as legislative time can be found.
