HC Deb 08 December 1980 vol 995 c255W
Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give further financial support to Powys area health authority in view of the particular problems and characteristics of the authority.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

I have recently announced that the Welsh Office has agreed, exceptionally, to meet the extra running costs of three new Health Service developments in Powys, which could not have come into full use without that assistance. The developments involved are units at Llanidloes, Newtown and Bronllys; the eventual annual cost will be in excess of £0.4 million.
