HC Deb 11 July 1978 vol 953 c461W
23. Mr. Anthony Grant

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he is satisfied with the cleaning and auxiliary services in National Health Service hospitals; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Deakins

As my right hon. Friend has indicated in his replies to a number of Previous Questions from the hon. Member on this subject, it is the responsibility of the health authorities to ensure that satisfactory arrangements are made for domestic services in hospitals. If the hon. Member has in mind any particular case where he considers the cleaning and auxiliary services to be inadequate, I should be grateful if he would let me have details.
