HC Deb 15 November 1983 vol 48 c396W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what manpower reductions he expects to be carried out by each of the health authorities in Wales as a result of the £6.5 million reduction in health provision in Wales for the current financial year.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

There has been a net growth of £8.1 million in the resources available to health authorities in Wales in 1983–84 compared with 1982–83. My right hon. Friend has not imposed any specific manpower reductions on authorities as a consequence of the July cash limit reductions.
