HC Deb 22 May 1979 vol 967 c111W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what future plans there are to increase training facilities for mentally handicapped persons in Ormskirk.

Dr. Vaughan

There is one 60-place adult training centre in Ormskirk. I understand that, because of the present distribution of facilities for the mentally handicapped in Lancashire, the county council is currently concentrating its resources on remedying deficiencies in other parts of the country. I have no plans at the present for increasing the number of training centre places in Ormskirk.
