HC Deb 16 March 1983 vol 39 c178W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will take steps to set up a Wales (Welsh) medical practitioner committee, in view of the fact that doctors from the Principality have only a single representative on the London-based medical practitioner committee.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

The medical practices committee covers the whole of England and Wales and has only two members from the London area. With one member out of eight on the committee, my right hon. Friend and I do not consider that doctors from Wales are under-represented. Nevertheless, we will shortly be consulting interested bodies in Wales on the desirability or otherwise of establishing a-separate committee for Wales.
