Primodos pregnancy test report criticised as 'whitewash' by MPs

Politicians question report that found no evidence hormonal pregnancy tests taken in 1960s and 1970s caused birth defects

MPs have attacked a report into controversial hormone pregnancy tests including Primodos as "a whitewash, an injustice, a betrayal".

Campaigners believe the drugs caused serious disabilities in babies, but a report by an expert working group set up by the Commission on Human Medicines (CHM) concluded there was no "causal association" between the disabilities and Primodos.
