HC Deb 13 November 1961 vol 649 c6W
39 and 40. Mr. Wilkins

asked the Minister of Health (1) whether, in view of the increase in the number of patients on the waiting list of the Corsham and Frenchay Hospital Group, Bristol, due to the continuous intake of accident cases mainly requiring plastic surgery treatment, he will now state when the proposed new accident centre for the region will be commenced;

(2) whether the proposed new accident centre for the south-west region will be based on the present unit at Frenchay Hospital, Bristol.

Mr. Powell

I must ask the hon. Member to await the statement on hospital development foreshadowed in the Gracious Speech.
