HC Deb 20 July 1973 vol 860 c247W
Mr. Haselhurst

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the estimated need for places in homes for the young chronic sick in Lancashire; and when he expects to satisfy it.

Mr. Alison

Lancashire County Council estimates a need for about 750 places in homes for younger physically handicapped people. Taking account of places made available to the county by voluntary and other organisations—440 at present—the council hopes to satisfy the need by 1980.
