HC Deb 13 March 1972 vol 833 c1W
18. Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether the Welsh Hospital Board intends to take steps to have a consultant paediatrician based on Aberystwyth.

Mr. Gibson-Watt

I understand that the Welsh Hospital Board has no present plans to appoint a consultant paediatrician at Aberystwyth. It is taking steps to appoint a second consultant paediatrician based at Carmarthen, which will enable an improved service to be provided at Aberystwyth.
