HC Deb 21 March 1972 vol 833 c296W
Mr. Concannon

asked the Secretary of State for Social Service how many private consultations have taken place at Mansfield and District General Hospital during the past five years, and in what specialities; and how this compares with other hospitals of comparable size.

Mr. Alison

The figures for this hospital are given in the table below. Consultants in a variety of specialties use rooms at the hospital on a rental basis for private consultations. An effective comparison with other hospitals of similar size could not be made without a disproportionate amount of work.
