HC Deb 07 August 1975 vol 897 cc314-5W
Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what is the present waiting list of patients waiting for barium meal studies at Bronglais Hospital, Aberystwyth; and what complaints he has received of the inadequacy of radiological services in Mid-Wales generally.

Mr. Barry Jones

One hundred and thirty patients; urgent cases among these are seen without delay. I have not received any recent complaint about radiological services in Mid-Wales generally, but I am aware that temporary staffing difficulties and seasonal pressure have caused some recent increase in waiting lists.
