§ Mrs. Renée Shortasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what funding is available for National Health Service artificial insemination by donor in England.
§ Sir George YoungThe Department allocates resources to regional health authorities on the basis of their assessed overall health care need. We do not allocate funds for particular services. Health authorities deploy their allocation in the light of national policies and priorities and local circumstances. No information is available centrally on the level of funding of particular services such as artificial insemination by donor.
