Part of Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland. – in the House of Commons at on 27 March 1935.
Mr William Leonard
, Glasgow St Rollox
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether the Department's Scientific Advisory Committee, instructed in 1932 to inquire into the circumstances attending births in Scotland, has completed its report; and, if so, when will it be published?
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
