HC Deb 18 January 1979 vol 960 cc898-9W
Mr. Tilley

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will make an investigation to establish whether the injectable contraceptive Depo-Provera, which is recommended only for short-term use in a very limited number of cases by the Committee for Safety of Medicines, is being prescribed for long-term use to many women who do not fall into the categories specified by the Committee for Safety of Medicines.

Mr. Moyle:

I shall let my hon. Friend have a reply as soon as possible.
