§ Mr. Pawseyasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what was the budget of the Rugby district health authority (a) in 1986 and (b) in the first year since its inception; and how many staff were employed in each of those years.
§ Mrs. CurrieFinancial allocations to individual health authorities are matters for the regional health authority. My hon. Friend may therefore wish to write to the chairman of the West Midlands regional health authority for this information. Staff in post figures, as at 30 September for the years 1982 and 1985 are shown in the498W table. I regret that staffing information for 1986 is not yet available centrally to this level of detail. Because of the 1982 National Health Service reorganisation, information for years prior to 1982 would not be comparable with that for 1985.
