HC Deb 27 October 1970 vol 805 cc38-9W
Mr. Golding

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many patients were sent admission slips and yet failed to arrive or declined admission to London teaching hospitals in 1969; and whether he will initiate an inquiry into the causes for the failure to accept treatment.

Mr. Alison

This information is not available, but I have no reason to believe that an inquiry is necessary.
