§ Mr. W. Griffithsasked the Minister of Health what proportion of the finances allocated to the Manchester Regional Hospital Board were expended in the last financial year.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodOn the provisional figures of expenditure for the year, the allocation to the Board on maintenance account was fully expended and expenditure on capital account amounted to about five-sixths of the capital allocation.
§ Mr. W. Griffithsasked the Minister of Health the number of developments in the Health Service in the area governed by the Manchester Regional Hospital Board, both of a capital nature and by the expansion of existing services, which are held up through insufficient financial resources.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodThere are of course a number of developments in this as in other areas which it would be desirable to undertake if resources were unlimited, but I am not aware of any particular scheme held up at the moment for lack of finance.
