HC Deb 19 March 1984 vol 56 cc366-71W
Mr. Campbell

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list the names and addresses of those places approved by him in England and Wales under the terms of the Abortion Act 1967; how many approved beds each has; and if he will list separately those controlled by (a) the British Pregnancy Advisory Service and (b) the Pregnancy Advisory Service.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The names and addresses and numbers of approved beds of such nursing homes in England are set out in the following table.

The information on ownership is provided by applicants for approval under the Abortion Act to my right hon. Friend for his own use and is not intended for publication.

I am sure that the two organisations referred to by the hon. Member would readily give him the information he seeks if he were to approach them directly. The information requested in relation to nursing homes in Wales is a matter for my right hon. Secretary of State for Wales.

Mr. Hargreaves

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish in the Official Report the number of abortions on residents and non-residents at 20 to 23 weeks' gestation and 24 weeks and over for the years 1970, 1971, 1972, 1980, 1981 and 1982, respectively which were carried out through the charities (a) the British Pregnancy Advisory Service and (b) the Pregnancy Advisory Service; on what grounds these were performed; what ages the women were; how many were carried out under agency from the National Health Service; and at what fees.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The information requested on fees is submitted to my right hon. Friend by proprietors of nursing homes approved under the Abortion Act for his own use and is not intended for publication. The Abortion Regulations 1968 do not allow disclosoure of the other information requested.
