Select Committee on Health Appendices to the Minutes of Evidence


APPENDIX 38

Note by Mr Frank Cranmer, Principal Clerk Select Committees to the Clerk of the Committees, Professor Roger Perry (TB 62)

  The New Scientist story on 16 May 1998 reported me correctly when it wrote: "Frank Cranmer, Clerk to the [Environment] Committee at that time, says that its Members knew Perry had done research for the tobacco industry. He cannot recall Perry mentioning that he had any deeper relationship with Philip Morris". Of course, he may possibly have mentioned the fact that he had a general retainer from Philip Morris to the then Chairman, Sir Hugh Rossi MP but he certainly did not mention it to me.
