HC Deb 06 July 1964 vol 698 c13W
71. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Minister of Health why the study of out-patient services covering delay in obtaining appointments and waiting time in departments is the only one out of 300 studies in the List of Hospital Studies, HM 64/13, to be listed as Report under Consideration; if that consideration is yet completed; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Braine

There are six studies so listed in the 211 entries; consideration of the study report with representatives of hospital authorities and other interested organisations is still in progress; my right hon. Friend intends to issue the report with appropriate advice, as soon as possible.
