HC Deb 18 December 1986 vol 107 cc660-1W
Mr. Kirkwood

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what extra resources are being made available to Scottish health boards to provide counselling facilities to those who are found to be HIV positive.

Mr. John MacKay

The question whether additional resources should be allocated to health boards in respect of services for patients who are HIV positive will be considered in the light of the recommendations of the national working party which my right hon. and learned Friend has set up to advise on the most appropriate and cost-effective method of organising services for such patients in Scotland.
