HC Deb 09 May 2000 vol 349 c361W
29. Mr. Tyler

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will circulate the revised HSE Guidance Note MS17, entitled "Medical Aspects of Work-Related Exposure to Organophosphates", to(a) potential users of organophosphates and (b) GPs. [120169]

Mr. Meacher

No. MS17 is a priced publication available on that basis to anyone, but it is written for doctors and other health professionals and would not be helpful to the general user of organophosphates. All GPs are being made aware of its existence, but it would be wasteful to distribute it to the many who will have no cause to refer to it.
