HC Deb 30 January 1980 vol 977 c651W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what interim secure units and regional secure units are now operating in Wales; and when he expects all the planned secure units to be operating.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

No unit is at present in operation in Wales. Approval has been given to the invitation of tenders for a psychiatric intensive care unit at North Wales hospital, Denbigh and planning is going ahead for a unit at Whit-church hospital, Cardiff. Both units will be brought into use as quickly as possible.
