HL Deb 21 October 1981 vol 424 c834WA
Lord Brockway

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will co-operate with the British Medical Association inquiry into the effects on health of nuclear and chemical warfare and provide it with relevant evidence now classified but not prejudicing security.

Lord Elton

The DHSS has already been in touch with the BMA and is providing information in collaboration with other Government departments, for its inquiry into the medical effects of a nuclear attack upon this country. There is little, if any, need to consider classified information in this context. Most relevant information is freely available.
