§ Mr. Dobsonasked the Secretary of State for Social Services which of the completed hospital building schemes listed in the answer of 30 June, Official Report, columns 418–20 are not at present in full use or have not been in full use for any period since their completion; and if he will give details of all periods of less than full use.
§ Mr. WhitneyTwo beds in the intensive therapy unit at Glenfield hospital, Leicester have not yet been brought into service because they are not needed until phase 2 of the new hospital is built. Otherwise, all completed schemes in the earlier list are in full use apart from those in which the initial commissioning work has not yet finished. Information about earlier periods is not available and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
