HC Deb 02 February 1971 vol 810 c1452
18. Mr. William Price

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will now make a further statement about the proposed development of the Hospital of St. Cross, Rugby.

Mr. Alison

At a meeting with representatives of the Birmingham Regional Hospital Board on 28th January it was agreed that further consideration should be given by the Board to the provision of acute beds.

Mr. Price

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that we shall be meeting on the Adjournment tomorrow night and that I shall be expecting something rather more positive than that?

Mr. Alison

I look forward to that encounter.
