HC Deb 09 June 1986 vol 99 cc100-4W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish in the Official Report a list of district health authorities which are conterminous with the local authority dealing with services for senior citizens, environmental health, mental illness and provisions for the disabled.

Mr. Whitney

[pursuant to his reply, 15 May 1986, c. 532]: The following district health authorities are conterminous with the local authorities indicated. Local authority services for mental illness and for disabled people, and most services for senior citizens, are provided by social services departments which are the responsibility of county councils, metropolitan district councils and London borough councils. District councils and London boroughs provide environmental health services and assistance with the housing of disabled people. Non-metropolitan district councils may also provide some services for the welfare and recreation of senior citizens.
