§ Mr. Ashleyasked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many children have been admitted for (a) long-term care and (b) short-term care of less than three months duration, to mental handicap hospitals in the last full year; and if he will name the hospitals and their locations.
§ Mr. Whitney[pursuant to his reply, 12 December 1985, c. 759–64]: I regret that the table in my reply contained a number of typing errors.
The heading to the last column should have read "Children admitted during 1984 but not discharged by the end of 1984".Under South Western regional health authority the entry against Plymouth district health authority should have read "Tamar House" and in the last column the entry should have read 1".Under Mersey regional health authority the second entry against Crewe district health authority should have read "Cranage Hall".
