HC Deb 20 November 1987 vol 122 cc708-9W
Mr. John M. Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will make a statement as to when each of the principal phases of the new Solihull district general hospital will commence and when the whole scheme will be concluded.

Mrs. Currie

The West Midlands regional health authority is responsible for the management of building schemes contained in its operational capital programme. I understand that decisions are due to be taken shortly concerning the rescheduling of schemes in the programme to enable the authority to remain within budget. My hon. Friend may therefore wish to write to the chairman of the West Midlands regional health authority for the information he requires.
