HC Deb 01 May 1981 vol 3 c1015 9.35 am
Mr. J. F. Pawsey (Rugby)

With your permission, Mr. Speaker, and that of the House, I beg leave to present a petition which has been signed by almost 10,000 of my constituents. It gives complete support to and entirely endorses the West Midlands regional health authority in its decision to make Rugby a separate new district health authority. My constituents believe that, although Rugby would be a small authority, it would be viable and would have a clear identity. It does not wish to be part of a larger authority and a more impersonal grouping. We hope that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Social Services will take note of these representations.

The petitioners pray that your honourable House, in considering any proposals for reorganising the administration of the National Health Service, will take steps to ensure that Rugby becomes a district health authority in its own right.

I beg leave to present the petition.

To lie upon the Table.
