HC Deb 14 January 1986 vol 89 cc554-6W
Mr. Pendry

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list all new hospitals which have opened since May 1979 or are due to open over the next 18 months, indicating the first date on which approval for each scheme was given.

Mr. Whitney

The tables list the major capital schemes completed since May 1979 and those expected to be completed in 1986–87 and give in each case the year in which the scheme was first approved. A major scheme is one above a certain cost, which has varied over time, which requires it to be subject to departmental approvals. During the period many smaller capital projects have been completed, but for which full records are not held centrally.
