§ Lord SANDYSasked Her Majesty's Government:
Which hospitals are scheduled for closure between 1979 and 1984.
§ Lord WELLS-PESTELLThe information requested is not available centrally in this form. There are however currently 113 proposals for hospital closures in the pipeline which, if a decision to close is ultimately taken, may be expected to be implemented before 1985. It is likely that there will be further proposals in due course.
