HC Deb 15 March 1965 vol 708 c187W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Minister of Health, having regard to hospital staff shortages, to what extent computers have been, and are being, introduced into National Health Service hospital administration.

Mr. Loughlin

We are encouraging the use of computers wherever it is reasonable to do so. Four have been installed, three are on order and others are under consideration. In addition a number of hospital authorities make use of the services of commercially provided computers.
