HC Deb 31 January 1966 vol 723 cc167-8W
Mr. MacArthur

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a further statement on the amount of building work going on this year at the universities of St. Andrews and Edinburgh

or four journeys per clay from Glasgow to operate at the unit; and what action he proposes to take to remedy the situation.

Dr. Dickson Mabon

I am aware of the difficulties here. The Western Regional Hospital Board is planning to start work next year on a new unit at the Southern General Hospital, Glasgow, which will provide a comprehensive service in this specialty for patients from all parts of the West of Scotland.
