HC Deb 18 March 1986 vol 94 c130W
Mr. Phillip Oppenheim

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many hip replacement operations there were in Derbyshire and Amber Valley (a) in 1978 and (b) for the most recent year for which figures are available.

Mr. Whitney

I am sorry I cannot give my hon. Friend the information he seeks. It is not collected centrally. My hon. Friend may wish to write to the chairmen of the North and Southern Derbyshire district health authorities for the information requested.
