HC Deb 12 May 1986 vol 97 cc380-1W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he is satisfied with the present provision of amniocentesis; and if he will make a statement about the prospects for the extension of this service.

Mr. Whitney

Facilities for amniocentesis are available through all consultant obstetric departments. Extension of the service is a matter for individual health authorities.
