§ Mrs. Renée Shortasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what resources he intends to make available to the blood transfusion service to perform the proposed acquired immune deficiency syndrome tests for blood donors.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeWe wrote to regional health authorities on 20 February 1985 asking them to set aside funds in 1985–86 for the introduction of the AIDS screening test in their blood transfusion centres. We would expect regional health authorities to find the money needed from within the £9,505 million made available for the hospital and community health services in 1985–86.
