HC Deb 01 August 1984 vol 65 c366W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish the hospital waiting lists for 31 March, showing for each region and district the number of urgent cases and urgent cases on waiting lists for more than a month, the number of non-urgent cases and non-urgent cases on waiting lists for more than a year and the total.

Mr. John Patten

Health district waiting list figures for 31 March 1984 are not yet available. A bound volume of the district waiting list returns will be placed in the Library as soon as all returns have been received and validated. For the latest available information, for September 1983, I refer the hon. Member to my reply to him on 11 April at columns290–300.
