HC Deb 07 November 1974 vol 880 c217W
Mr. Lawrence

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether she is satisfied with the present arrangement for referring children in the Burton Parliamentary division in need of psychiatric attention to Birmingham; and what proposals she has for securing a child psychiatric appointment to serve the needs of Burton children requiring psychiatric help.

Dr. Owen

An additional consultant child psychiatrist post has been authorised for Staffordshire Area Health Authority which, it is hoped, will improve services in the area.
