HC Deb 27 July 1979 vol 971 cc692-3W
Mr. Whitlock

asked the Secretary of of State for Social Services what will be the consequences to the Nottingham area health authority in closures of facilities, deferred plans and reduced staff if its financial allocation in 1980–81 takes no account of anticipated inflation.

Dr. Vaughan

It is the custom under the cash limits system to set financial allocations which take account of anticipated inflation.
