HC Deb 28 November 1988 vol 142 c141W
Mr. Burns

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will list, by county, all local authority registered homes for the mentally and physically handicapped.

Mrs. Currie

The numbers of local authority homes for younger physically handicapped people in each local authority are published in "Residential Accommodation for the Elderly and Younger Physically Handicapped People: All Residents in Local Authority, Voluntary and Private Homes". The number of local authority-registered homes for mentally handicapped people in each local authority is published in "Homes and Hostels for Mentally Ill and Mentally Handicapped People". The latest available information relates to 1986. The "Directory of Independent Hospitals and Health Services" lists local authority-registered homes by name. Copies of all these publications are available in the Library.
