§ 20. Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Wales if, following the visit of the Under-Secretary of State to Carmarthen hospitals recently, he is now in a position to reply to representations made to him on the serious delays in providing modern in-patient psycho-geriatric treatment in hospitals in the town.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsMy right hon. Friend has now replied to these representations and has sent a copy of his reply to the hon. Member.
The original plans for the improvement of St. David's hospital would not have provided the desired number of beds economically. I do not believe that the modification of these plans has seriously delayed the progress of the scheme.
