HC Deb 04 February 1985 vol 72 c452W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will give details of any involvement by his Department or any health authority in medical services in Egypt, Saudi Arabia or elsewhere overseas.

Mr. John Patten

North-East Thames regional health authority provides administrative advice to the Ministry of Defence in connection with the agreement between the Government and Saudi Arabia under which the Ministry of Defence has appointed contractors to manage the King Khalid National Guard hospital in Jeddah. I am not aware of any other existing contracts.
