I have been asked to reply. This Report is one of a series supplied to the Department of Health for Scotland by its scientific advisory committee on medical administration and investigation. Some of these reports, for example one on a war-time bacteriological service, it has not been considered necessary to publish at all. The others have been issued as non-Parliamentary publications. In view of the special importance of the Orr Committee Report on infant mortality, I had copies sent to all Scots Members on the day of publication, and I have now arranged for copies to be placed in the Vote Office for the convenience of other Members.
