HC Deb 14 December 1964 vol 704 c11W
68. Mr. Prior

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the worsening situation with regard to orthopædic in-patients in the area covered by Norwich, Yarmouth and Lowestoft hospitals; and what action he is taking to improve it.

Sir B. Stross

The waiting list at June, 1964, was substantially the same as six months earlier. The regional hospital board appointed an extra consultant and provided additional beds last year, and arrangements have now been made to provide a few more beds.
