HC Deb 18 February 1987 vol 110 cc711-4W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what sums were collected by each of the English area health authorities from non-United Kingdom residents for hospital charges in 1985 and 1986.

Mr. Newton

The table shows the income under section 121 of the National Health Service Act 1977 recorded in the annual accounts of health authorities for 1984–85 and 1985–86. This income is shown net of any sums written off in the relevant year (including those due from earlier years); in a few cases the result is a negative figure (figures shown in brackets in table). The table does not include income received under sections 65 and 66 of the Act from overseas residents treated as private patients.

Income from overseas visitors (under section 121 of the National Health Service Act 1977)
