HC Deb 16 April 1969 vol 781 c272W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services which of the criticisms made by the reports of the inquiries into the "Sans Everything" allegations have not yet been rectified.

Mr. Crossman

The six Committees of Inquiry made a total of 53 recommendations to the respective hospital boards which have submitted statements to my Department of the results so far of their consideration of each recommendation. Action has been taken or initiated on 43 recommendations. Of the remainder, one has been implemented as far as practicable; one has been made redundant by other action taken; five have financial implications which the board is still considering; one has been deferred to become part of a later re-organisation; one relates in part to a matter outside the powers of the board; and one is not accepted. I am considering what further action may be required.
