HC Deb 16 February 1983 vol 37 c182W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will make a statement on the arrangements for the payment of patients' own money at St. Mary's hospital, Stannington, Northumberland.

Mr. Rossi

I am not aware of any complaints by social security beneficiaries—the group I take it that the hon. Member has in mind. For information on the paying out arrangements at St. Mary's hospital—where the normal schedule and order book arrangements operate between the Department and the hospital—the hon. Member should consult the health authority concerned.
