HC Deb 23 December 1982 vol 34 c681W
20. Sir Anthony Royle

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will instruct the Richmond, Twickenham and Roehampton area health authority to carry out the undertaking given to the hon. Member for Richmond, Surrey by the area health authority's predecessor body to rebuild the Royal hospital, for which £2 ½ million was set aside; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

It is for the South-West Thames regional health authority, in consultation with districts, to consider competing claims for capital funding, determine priorities and to decide what schemes can be accommodated within available resources.
