HC Deb 15 June 1984 vol 61 cc586-93W
Mr. Gregory

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will give the number and location, by local authority, of places for the elderly in residential homes for each year since 1978.

Mr. John Patten

The information for private and voluntary homes and places in each county was provided in my reply to the hon. Member for Burnley (Mr. Pike) on 2 March at columns386–90. The information for local authority homes and places in each county was provided in my reply to the hon. Member for Peckham (Ms. Harman) on 11 June at columns 378–82.

To supplement those figures I give the comparable information for each metropolitan district and London borough.
