HC Deb 01 April 1993 vol 222 c411W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what proportion of patients reaching the age of 65 years are receiving an automatic health check under his new general practitioner contract in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

The information is not available centrally. As from today, patients will be able to require a three-year health check, as prescribed in general practitioners' terms of service and in line with the patients charter.
