§ Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will take steps to support the establishment of study centres, such as that recently established in Bradford, to examine the provision of health care to ethnic minorities.
§ Mr. Geoffrey FinsbergWe welcome the establishment at Bradford of a resource and research centre concerned with ethnic minority health. Should the centre submit any proposal for research to the DHSS, it will, of course, be examined in the usual way, but I should add that there is severe pressure on the relevant research budget.
