HC Deb 19 February 1948 vol 447 c246W
Mr. Sharp

asked the Minister of Health how many hospitals have received grants to enable them to maintain proper services pending the establishment of a National Health Service; which of these are in the West Riding of Yorkshire and what amounts have each received.

Mr. Bevan

One hundred and eighty-nine hospitals in England and Wales have received grants to enable them to maintain proper services pending the establishment of a National Health Service but I do not think it would be in the interest of the hospitals themselves to give the details of individual cases.
