HC Deb 13 April 1988 vol 131 cc171-3W
Mr. Goodlad

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list the mental hospitals which are scheduled to(a) open and (b) close in each health region in England and Wales in each of the next seven years.

Mrs. Currie

The table lists those mental illness hospitals which have, or have had, over 200 beds and which the regional health authorities in England have indicated they plan to close by about 1995, subject to the results of the public consultation which has yet to take place, or is now under way, and to the provision of appropriate alternative accommodation and services.

We have no comprehensive information available on those mental illness hospitals or units which are scheduled to open by 1995.

Details relating to hospitals in Wales are a matter for my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales. Mental illness hospitals which have, or have had, over 200 beds which regional health authorities have indicated they plan to close, subject to consultation and to suitable alternative provision being made, by about 1995.
