HC Deb 31 July 1998 vol 317 c581W
Mr. Moore

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list by NHS board the hospital maintenance backlog on 1 July. [53294]

Mr. Dewar

The information requested is unavailable both in total and by Health Board. However, 81 per cent. of the essential building is considered to be in physical condition A or B which is evidence of the general soundness of the NHS estate.
