HC Deb 15 November 1968 vol 773 cc167-8W
Mr. Edward M. Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has to review the ambulance service in Scotland.

Mr. Ross

The forthcoming green paper on the administration of the health service will provide an opportunity to consider future arrangements for the ambulance service. As regards operations, I am making a grant to Strathclyde University to support a study to find ways of improving the performance of the service in terms of both economies of operation and service provided. I have at present no other plans for reviewing the service.
