HC Deb 18 July 1978 vol 954 c202W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how it is intended to make good the revenue, currently amounting to an estimated £28.3 million for the United Kingdom as a whole, after the abolition of pay beds.

Mr. Moyle

The estimated loss of revenue from the abolition of pay beds from NHS hospitals has already been made good, and a public expenditure adjustment was announced in the White Paper on Public Expenditure to 1979–80—Cmnd. 6393—and during the debate on the Second Reading of the Health Services Bill on 27th April 1976.—[Vol. 910, c.326–27.]
