HC Deb 15 June 1971 vol 819 cc51-2W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what proposals he has for increasing the number of Mobile Coronary Care Units; what assessment has been made of the success of these units; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Alison

Mobile coronary care units are under evaluation. Trials are currently being undertaken to determine the efficacy of such units in urban traffic conditions with particular reference to the most effective use of medical manpower. On completion a careful assessment will be made of the results.
