§ Mr. Barry Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Wales what is the estimated cost, start and completion date of the proposed Deeside community hospital; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Wyn Roberts:The planning and programming of a new community hospital for Deeside is primarily a matter for the Clwyd health authority. The latest information I have from them is that the estimated cost is £1.8 million. Start of work is programmed for the 1986–87 financial year, contract completion time being 27 months.
