HC Deb 29 July 1974 vol 878 cc105-6W
Mr. Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether she will make a statement about present hospital building progress in England and Wales, with particular reference to the area covered by the Merseyside Regional Health Authority.

Hospital building in the current year has been reduced by the 20 per cent. cut in capital expenditure announced last December. Within this reduced programme the Mersey Regional Health Authority is proceeding with the following major schemes:

  • Phases II and III of the Royal Liverpool Hospital.
  • Improvements at Southport Infirmary.
  • Phase A of Warrington District General Hospital.
  • Arrowe Park District General Hospital.
  • Psychiatric Unit, kitchen and dining room at Clatterbridge Hospital.
  • Phase A of Runcorn District General Hospital.
  • Computer installation for the regional health authority.
