HC Deb 01 November 1988 vol 139 c591W
67. Mr. Shersby

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what conclusions he has drawn from the 40th report of the Committee of Public Accounts, "Estate Management in the National Health Service" (HC 481); and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Currie

The report draws attention to a number of significant factors in the management of the National Health Service estate and points to the lessons to be learnt by all those who have a responsibility for managing property effectively and efficiently. We are considering the report carefully there will shortly be a formal Government response and my hon. Friend will receive a copy.
