HC Deb 16 March 1981 vol 1 c15W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether the pneumoconiosis research unit at Llandough hospital near Cardiff will continue; and whether its programme will be abandoned in order to combine it with thoracic and respiratory research carried on at the university teachers hospital, Heath, Cardiff.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

I refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave to a question by the hon. Member for Ogmore (Mr. Powell) on 4 February.—[Vol. 998 c.125.] I understand from my right hon. and learned Friend the Secretary of State for Education and Science that there are no plans to abandon the research programme of the pneumoconiosis unit in order to combine it with the thoracic and respiratory research carried on at the University hospital of Wales, Cardiff.
