§ Mr. KirkwoodTo ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will estimate the additional cost to the DSS budget of providing a social fund community care grant to bridge the financial difference between the residential fees charged by residential nursing homes and the current levels of DSS residential/nursing home fees in circumstances where providing such a grant would allow a patient on NHS acute hospital bed to vacate their hospital bed and accept a place in the receiving residential/nursing home.
§ Miss WiddecombeThe information requested is not available.
