HC Deb 18 April 1990 vol 170 c875W
Mr. Key

To ask the Secretary of State for Health when he next plans to meet the director of the centre for applied microbiology and research at Porton Down; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeman

We have no immediate plans to do so. However, officials both of the Department, and of the public health laboratory service of which the centre forms a part, are in regular contact with the director.
