HC Deb 14 July 1987 vol 119 c426W
Mr. McGrady

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the Department of Health and Social Services investigation into the incidence of cancer in Northern Ireland is completed; and when he expects it to make its final report.

Mr. Needham

The expert committee examining patterns of disease in Northern Ireland which have a possible association with radiation has not yet completed its work. I hope to receive the committee's final report by the end of 1987.
