HC Deb 05 March 1980 vol 980 cc214-5W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish for each Welsh county the perinatal mortality rates available annually for the past three years.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

This information is available in Health and Personal Social Services Statistics for Wales—figures for 1977 and 1978 in the 1979 issue and for 1976 in that for 1978. Copies of these publications have been placed in the Library. Information relating to 1979 is not yet available.

Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish figures for perinatal mortality rates in small hospitals staffed by general practitioners, as compared with district general hospitals with modern equipment and adequate obstetric and paediatric consultant staff.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

The information is not available in the form required.
