§ Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will take steps to reduce substantially the number of hospital doctors who work more than 104 hours per week; and if he will seek to legislate to limit the maximum period of time hospital doctors may work without a break.
§ Dr. VaughanI refer the hon. Member to my reply to him on 2 March [Vol. 1000, c. 34]. I do not consider that legislation would be desirable.
