HC Deb 05 March 1985 vol 74 c508W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what guidelines he plans to issue to parents in respect of monitoring accurately the growth rate, weight and temperature of their babies; and what provisions he intends to make available for this purpose.

Mr. John Patten

We have no plans to issue specific guidance. Parents can already seek advice from family doctors, health visitors and clinics about the development of their children.
