Lord Jopling

asked the Chairman of Committees:

When medical screening for Members of the House will be introduced. [HL4599]

The Chairman of Committees (Lord Tordoff)

The House agreed last year that each Member of the House should be offered free medical screening once every three years on a rolling basis. The service will begin on 10 June 2002, under contract with St Thomas' Hospital. Screenings and follow-up interviews will take place in the premises of the Occupational Health and Welfare Service, which will start issuing invitations to Members to make appointments shortly.
