HC Deb 29 October 1957 vol 575 c6
11. Mrs. Mann

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland which hospital buildings will be in any way affected by the credit restrictions; and, in particular, to what extent the new Lanarkshire maternity hospital at Bellshill will be so affected.

Mr. J. N. Browne

There may be some adjustment of the starting dates of the major hospital building projects planned for start in 1958–59, but the programme announced in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Scotstoun (Sir J. Hutchison) on 12th December last still stands. The works now in progress, including the maternity hospital at Bellshill, will not be affected.
