HC Deb 04 July 1994 vol 246 c97W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) what plans she has to review the ban on the sale of comfrey products;

(2) what recent representations she has received concerning the ban on the availability of comfrey products; and if she will make a statement.

Mr. Sackville

We have no plans at present to reconsider the withdrawal of certain comfrey products. We are currently considering the results of a survey received recently from the Society for the Promotion of Nutritional Therapy.
