HC Deb 09 June 1980 vol 986 c63W
Mr. Skinner

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if, in view of the increasing need for psychogeriatric services in the county of Derbyshire, he will ensure the provision of resources for the area.

Sir George Young

Resources are allocated to regional health authorities on the basis of an assessed overall health care need, and the provision for particular services in particular areas is the responsibility of the regional health authority; in this case, the Trent regional health authority.
