§ Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish in the Official Report the total number of representations that he has received from public authorities, including county councils, district councils and community health councils in Dyfed since the publication of "Patients First" (i) supporting the principle of enlarging the health authority headquarters and thereby changing Dyfed to a single district area authority and (ii) supporting the principle of Dyfed being divided into smaller health authorities in some form.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsThe information regarding representations received in response to "Patients First" is not available in the form requested. Representations received by my right hon. Friend in response to "The Structure and Management of the National Health Service in Wales" include four from public authorities supporting a single district area authority within Dyfed with local health management units and 17, including 12 from local community councils supporting some form of division of the Dyfed health authority.
