HC Deb 24 May 1979 vol 967 c216W
Mr. Ennals

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether it is his intention to bring forward the staged payments for doctors and dentists following the decisions taken in respect of the police and the Armed Forces.

Mr. Patrick Jerkin

The Government will honour their commitment, given in opposition, on both the phasing and updating of the recommendations in the 1978 report of the review body on doctors' and dentists' remuneration. The Government will announce their decision on the Review Body's 1979 report shortly.
