§ Mr. George Robertsonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is satisfied with the way in which Lanarkshire health board is conducting its work, in the light of its failure to adhere to its assurances that the former Bickford Lodge maternity hospital would not be used for other than medical or social work purposes.
§ Mr. FairgrieveYes. While a change in circumstances beyond its control has made it necessary for the health board to review its proposals for the use of these premises, it is still its intention to use them for health service purposes.
