HC Deb 29 April 1986 vol 96 cc387-8W
Sir David Price

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) if he will make a statement on the future of the Netley Castle convalescent home in the parish of Hound, near Southampton;

(2) if he will make a statement on the future of the Fred Woolley House convalescent home in Southampton.

Mr. Whitney

Management of these hospitals is the responsibility of the Southampton and South-West Hampshire health authority, which yesterday considered their future use. I understand the authority decided that there was a continuing role for the hospitals within the district.
