97. Mr. O'Halloran

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will now make a further statement about the proposed development of the Whittington Hospital, Archway, London, N.19; when building will commence; and what will be the estimated cost, and the approximate date of completion.

Mr. Alison

The North West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board hopes to start this development within the next two or three years. Rebuilding is planned in several Phases over a number of years and it is impracticable to forecast the date of completion. The current estimate of cost is about £9 million.
