HC Deb 09 May 1973 vol 856 cc140-1W
Mr. Roderick

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish the finances, by means of endowments, available to each teaching hospital in England and Wales for the purposes of research.

Sir K. Joseph

The endowment funds held by teaching hospitals for general purposes are available both for purposes relating to hospital services and for research as they think fit, and they may also hold endowments specifically for research in accordance with the wishes of donors.

Information to identify the amounts endowed solely for research purposes is not available centrally. The actual expenditure on research out of trust funds by each English board of governors in 1971–72, the latest financial year for which figures are available, was as follows:
