Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health was a junior ministerial office in the United Kingdom Government.
The Ministry of Health was created in 1919 as a reconstruction of the Local Government Board. Local government functions were eventually transferred to the Minster of Housing and Local Government, leaving the Health Ministry in charge of Health proper.
From 1968 it was amalgamated with the Ministry of Social Security under the Secretary of State for Social Services, until a demerger of the Department of Health and Social Security on July 25, 1988.
