Dr. David Clark

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services in cash terms what his announcement of a 2 per cent. cut in capital spending and a 1 per cent. cut in revenue expenditure means in each case for the South Tyneside health authority.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The allocation of resources to South Tyneside health authority is a matter for the Northern regional health authority. The regional health authority will need to revise the cash limits of each of the district health authorities in the region in the light of its revised cash limits for 1983–84.
