HC Deb 23 March 1944 vol 398 c1067W
Captain Cox

asked the Minister of Health if extra provision for maternity hospitals in the North-east Cheshire district can be made.

Mr. Willink

The possibility of further building in war-time is, as my hon. and gallant Friend will appreciate, limited by the concentration of labour and materials on the war effort. I have no information which suggests that the situation in the area to which my hon. and gallant Friend refers is exceptionally difficult, but I am making inquiries and will communicate further with him.
