Dr. Evan Harris

To ask the Secretary of State for Health pursuant to his answer of 14 April 2003,Official Report, column 626W, on Ward (Definition), if he will place a copy of the data dictionary in the Library. [110891]

Mr. Hutton

The national health service data dictionary is maintained by the NHS Information Authority. To facilitate its updating and use, the dictionary is now available in an electronic form only. It is no longer produced in the form of a document which could be placed in the Library.

Access to the NHS data dictionary can now be made instead through the NHS Information Authority website at www.nhsia.nhs.uk/datastandards/pages/ddm/index.htm
