§ Mr. Cabornasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what was the total income received under sections 58, 65 and 66 of the National Health Service Act 1977 for the period April 1982 to April 1983 (a) nationally, (b) in Yorkshire and Humberside region and (c) in the metropolitan district of Sheffield.
§ Mr. Dubsasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will indicate for the latest year (a) the items supplied and (b) treatments carried out by the National Health Service on behalf of patients in private hospitals; and what income was received by the National Health Service in respect of these matters.
§ Mr. Dobsonasked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) if he will give for the latest available year the income received by each district by providing services to independent institutions under section 58 of the Health Service Act 1977;
(2) if he will give for the latest available year and for each region, district, special health authority and board of governors the total income received under (a) section 58 of the National Health Service Act 1977, (b) section 65 of the Act and (c) section 66 of the Act.
§ Mr. Kenneth Clarke[pursuant to his replies, 16 January 1984, c. 125; 21 March 1984, c. 504; 14 May 1984, c. 77; and 24 May 1984, c. 515]: The annual accounts of health authorities submitted to the Department for 1982–83 show income under sections 65 and 66 of the National Health Service Act 1977 as follows.
It has now been established that due to some misclassification of income by some authorities the information available centrally about section 58 income is unreliable and the national total for 1982–83 (18,301) quoted in my earlier replies to the hon. Members for Battersea (Mr. Dubs) and for Sheffield, Central (Mr. Caborn) is incorrect. I am asking authorities to review their accounting procedures to ensure that such income is correctly assigned in the future. When the figures for 1983–84 are available, I shall reply further.
