HC Deb 19 January 1968 vol 756 c700W
Mr. Clifford Williams

asked the Minister of Health what effect the proposed cuts in expenditure will have on the hospital services in Wales.

Mr. K. Robinson:

My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister in his statement of 16th January (Cmnd. 3515) did not propose any reductions in the level of expenditure on the hospital service, although out-patients will be called upon to pay prescription charges, with such exemptions as may be arranged for the patients of general practitioners.
