§ Lord AVEBURYasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether the report of Sir Henry Yellowlees on the role of Port Medical Officers in relation to immigration control and the use of medical techniques for that purpose will be published.
§ Lord BELSTEADMy right honourable friend's predecessor said that he would review, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer, the objects and nature of medical examinations in the context of immigration control. We intend to announce the conclusions of that review. Whether a report will also be published it is too soon to say.
