HC Deb 08 November 1983 vol 48 c55W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what are the present facilities for accidents and emergencies in Salford; if any changes in such services are envisaged; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John Patten

At present full accident and emergency facilities are provided at Salford royal hospital and Hope hospital. New facilities for the district will be opening in 1984 at Hope hospital, as part of that hospital's redevelopment. The health authority has appointed a working party to consider the future pattern of services in the light of these new facilities.
