HC Deb 21 January 1987 vol 108 cc630-7W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) if he will give for 1985–86 for each health authority the total expenditure on hospital catering, the total expenditure on services provided to hospitals by private catering companies, the latter figure as a percentage of the former and the difference between that percentage and the percentage in 1984–85;

(2) if he will give for 1985–86 for each health authority the total expenditure on hospital cleaning, the total expenditure on services provided to hospitals by private cleaning companies, the latter figure as a percentage of the former and the difference between that percentage and the percentage in 1984–85;

(3) if he will give for 1985–86 for each health authority the total expenditure on hospital laundry, the total expenditure on services provided to hospitals by private laundry companies, the latter figure as a percentage of the former and the difference between that percentage and the percentage in 1984–85.

Mr. Newton

[pursuant to his reply, 24 November 1986, c. 128–129]: The following table, which is derived from the annual accounts of regional and district health authorities, and the special health authorities for the London postgraduate teaching hospitals, shows their total current expenditure on catering, domestic and cleaning, and laundry services and the expenditure on private contracts included in these totals. The bulk of the total expenditure relates to hospital services but they are not identified separately within the figures for private contract expenditure.

The form of family practitioner committees' accounts does not permit a similar analysis but their total 1985–86 expenditure on contracted out services in these categories was a little over £200,000.
