HC Deb 02 February 1988 vol 126 c590W
Mr. Meacher

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list those opticians in the north-east area of Manchester who are not routinely handing out general optical service prescriptions, identified in the summary of the National Health Service investigator's report.

Mrs. Currie

The Family Practitioner Committee is initiating service committee proceedings against three practitioners where the auditors' report provided some evidence of their failure to hand over prescriptions. It would be prejudicial to the practitioners concerned to publish their names.
