HL Deb 08 February 1982 vol 427 c81WA
Baroness Masham of Ilton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many patients have been admitted to spinal units in hospital in the United Kingdom, who have sustained broken necks resulting in permanent paralysis as a result of playing rugby football, for each of the last five calendar years.

Lord Elton

This information is not held centrally, nor is it readily available in comparable form from the spinal units.
