HL Deb 28 June 1979 vol 400 c1691WA
The Marquess of LOTHIAN

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What is the annual cost of treating in National Health Service hospitals patients admitted thereto suffering from infection haemorrhage and other complications resulting from abortions performed in the private sector.

Lord CULLEN of ASHBOURNE

Accounts and costing returns rendered to the department by Health Authorities do not separately identify costs for treatment of particular diseases and conditions and I regret that I am unable to provide the information requested.
