HC Deb 10 November 1982 vol 31 c180W
Mr. Mike Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services on what date he received the report of the Greenfield working group on prescribing; and what has prevented him from publishing it in the intervening period.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

We received the report of the informal working group on effective prescribing in February this year. The report gives advice to Ministers on a number of topics and we are considering it carefully and exploring the implications of its recommendations.
