§ Mr. Buchanasked the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) if his Department will undertake a study of the findings of the Social Services Committee on perinatal mortality as they relate to Scotland;
(2) if he will give an assurance that the measures taken to implement the recommendations of the Social Services Committee on perinatal and noenatal mortality will also apply to Scotland.
§ Mr. FairgrieveThe report is not addressed explicitly to the position in Scotland, but my Department will certainly carry out a detailed study of its findings. Until the report has been studied in detail I cannot give any assurance about measures to implement its recommendations in Scotland.
