HC Deb 15 December 1994 vol 251 c777W
Mr. Cox

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many hospital beds have closed in London since the Tomlinson report was published.

Mr. Malone

The Tomlinson report used data for 1990–91. Provisional examination of the 1993–94 bed data for London suggests that the reduction in the number of available acute sector beds, excluding day beds, over the period 1990–91 to 1993–94 has been 1,896.
