§ Mr. Stodartasked the Secretary of State for Scotland why there has been a delay in building a new unit for the treatment of kidney diseases at the Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh; and what steps he proposes to take to rectify this.
§ Mr. RossThe siting of the unit had to be changed and the scope has also been enlarged, since the University wish to include accommodation. I am asking the Regional Hospital Board to consider urgently whether the planning and building of this unit can be speeded up.
