HC Deb 13 June 1978 vol 951 c405W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services which area health authorities still have less than one psychiatric consultant per 60,000 population.

Mr. Moyle

Information on the number of consultants in each area is not collected centrally. At 30th September 1977, only two regional health authorities—Trent and Mersey—had less than one consultant psychiatrist per 60,000 population.
