HC Deb 12 November 1971 vol 825 c290W
Mr. Kinnock

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what consideration he has given to the practicability of applying the recommendations of the Central Health Services Council report, The Functions of a District General Hospital. to Wales, as far as catchment areas for hospitals is concerned.

Mr. Peter Thomas:

The report on "The Functions of a District General Hospital" is still under consideration. I am awaiting the results of operational research studies bearing on the size of district general hospitals.
