§ 22. Mr. Roderickasked the Secretary of State for Wales whether he proposes to publish a consultative document on the 20 reorganisation of the National Health Service in Wales similar to the one released by the Department of Health and Social Services on 17th May.
§ Mr. Gibson-WattMy right hon. and learned Friend will publish a consultative document shortly.
§ Mr. RoderickWill the Minister say whether the consultative document will be on the same lines as the one just published for England? Shall we have more meaningful consultations than those to which we have been accustomed in the past?
§ Mr. Gibson-WattThe principles underlying the reorganisation proposals are the same in both countries, but the hon. Gentleman must await the document for details of any differences there may be between the administrative structures proposed for England and for Wales.
