HC Deb 04 February 1974 vol 868 cc255-6W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services when he hopes to make a decision on the provision of a health centre in the Swinton and Pendlebury area; if he is aware of the need in this area; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Alison

I am aware from the hon. Member's letters of the need in this area. There are also competing needs in other areas. My right hon. Friend hopes to be able to make a decision within the next two weeks.
