HC Deb 24 November 1958 vol 596 c15
33. Mr. P. Williams

asked the Minister of Health whether he is satisfied with the provision of places at suitable centres for the training of mentally-handicapped children in Sunderland.

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health (Mr. Richard Thompson)

No, Sir, but I understand that the local health authority proposes to provide a new centre in the near future.

Mr. Williams

Can my hon. Friend state the number of places per thousand of the population and how this compares with the rest of the country?

Mr. Thompson

Not without notice.
