HC Deb 19 May 1998 vol 312 c333W
18. Mr. Savidge

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the effect of Government policies on health services in the north of Scotland. [41267]

Mr. Galbraith

Our policies are bringing benefits to patients in the north of Scotland as they are elsewhere. For example, in Aberdeen the co-operative and collaborative approach we are encouraging will enable a new children's hospital to be built using capital receipts from the sale of redundant trust and health board estate.
