HC Deb 26 May 1982 vol 24 cc326-7W
Mr. McTaggart

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science, pursuant to the answer to the hon. Member for Dundee, West (Mr. Ross) on 22 March, Official Report, c. 275, what funds have been allocated by the Medical Research Council to the research work being undertaken at Northwick Park hospital, Middlesex, into the relationship between alcoholism and chemical enzyme deficiency.

Mr. William Shelton

The investigation into the relationship between alcoholism and enzyme deficiency, being carried out at the MRC's clinical research centre in collaboration with the council's epidemiology and medical care unit is part of a much wider programme of research at the CRC. I understand from the MRC that it is therefore not possible to separately identify the funds allotted to a particular area within that programme.
