| Description | Agendas, minutes, and meeting papers from 3 meetings of the committee that oversaw and advised on the work of the MRC National Survey of Health and Development (NSHD) during this period. This committee was an extension of the Joint Committee of the Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists and the Population Investigation Committee that oversaw and advised on the 1946 maternity survey and initial follow-up surveys, but by this time the committee membership had changed due to the changing emphasis of the study. The committee is referred to in these papers as the 'Survey Committee' or the ‘Steering Committee’.
These papers are from the following meetings:
- The Eighth Meeting of the Survey Committee, 13 November 1970.
- The Ninth Meeting of the Survey Committee, 12 July 1971.
- The Tenth Meeting of the Survey Committee, 4 May 1973.
