HC Deb 27 February 1930 vol 235 cc2407-8
67. Mr. SORENSEN

asked the Minister of Health how many local authorities are not providing accommodation and treatment for mental patients approximate to the standard laid down by the Board of Control?

Mr. GREENWOOD

I am not at present in a position to add anything to the reply given on the 19th December on this subject, but by the end of next month, the Board of Control will have before them returns indicating the number of patients chargeable to each area and the accommodation provided, showing incidentally whether the bed space accords with the standard laid down by the Board of Control. I shall be glad to communicate to my hon. Friend the purport of the information then available.
