HC Deb 23 May 1980 vol 985 c452W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish in the Official Report his estimates of the weekly cost of maintaining a patient who is elderly and mentally infirm in Shenley hospital and the total weekly cost for such a patient if maintained in the community with full coverage of district nursing, home helps, meals on wheels and medical coverage.

Sir George Young

Such estimates are not available centrally. The hon Member may find it more useful to seek information about local services direct from the Brent and Harrow area health authority.
