CLEMENT DAVIES MP AND THE COMMITTEE OF INQUIRY INTO THE ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS SERVICE IN WALES AND MONMOUTHSHIRE (1939)

This article examines the all-important Committee of Inquiry to investigate ‘the working of arrangements for the prevention, treatment and after-care of tuberculosis in Wales and Monmouth’ set up by the National Government in the autumn of 1937, the proceedings and activities of the committee, and the contents of its report, which included a great deal of very valuable information on housing in Wales, and the public and political reactions to its publication in the spring of 1939. The comprehensive report contained much valuable material on the role of the Welsh National Memorial Association and the record of the Welsh local authorities in relation to health provision and housing conditions.
