HC Deb 03 May 1956 vol 552 c58W
Mrs. Lena Jeger

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when the new hospital at Paphos was opened; how many beds are in use; and whether there are separate wards for children and for maternity cases.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

The male and female wards and the X-ray building have been completed. It had been intended to bring them into immediate use, but this was not found practicable, because the walls had not had sufficient time to dry out after the late rains. It is expected that the first patients will be moved into the new hospital by the end of this month. There will be separate wards for children and for maternity cases.
