HC Deb 11 June 1951 vol 488 c171W
Mr. Granville

asked the Minister of Health what steps he intends to take to increase the accommodation for children in mental homes in East Anglia, in view of the large number of cases at present awaiting admission.

Mr. Marquand

The mental deficiency development plan of the East Anglian Regional Hospital Board contemplates among other things the addition of 150 beds for children. A start is to be made on the first phase of the plan this year.
