HC Deb 13 July 1971 vol 821 c45W
36 and 47. Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) what are the alterations and additional buildings now required at the Mexborough Montague Hospital to bring it up to a reasonable modern standard ;

(2) when a new outpatients' department will be ereced at the Montague Hospital, Mexborough.

Mr. Alison

Extensive rebuilding would be required and, as I told the hon. Member in my reply on 20th July, 1970, there are at present no plans for this, because priority is being given to a new district general hospital at Oakwood Hall, Rotherham, which will serve this area.—[Vol. 804, c.53–4.]
