HC Deb 23 March 1976 vol 908 cc99-100W
52. Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if she will visit the hostels for former mental patients in Birmingham.

Dr. Owen

I visited Birmingham on 3rd March and saw hostel accommodation for the mentally disordered provided privately, as well as facilities provided by the Salvation Army and the City Council. My right hon. Friend has no plans for a similar visit.
