HC Deb 22 December 1982 vol 34 c590W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what progress has been made in establishing the three experimental nursing homes within the National Health Service that he announced on 4 February, Official Report, c. 558; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

I am pleased to report that good progress has been made with this Government initiative. The nursing home at Sheffield is expected to open in May 1983. The other homes at Fleetwood and Portsmouth are due to open early in 1984.
