§ Mr. Carter-Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has now received the reports from the 33 area health authorities to which he wrote concerning their perinatal or infant mortality rates; if he is satisfied with the action 216W that they are taking; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MoyleI have now received replies covering all the areas concerned and these are being studied by my officials, who are preparing a summary for me and for the Expenditure Sub-Committee which is currently looking into perinatal and neonatal mortality. I shall be glad to send my hon. Friend a copy of this summary when it is available.
