§ Mr. Ieuan Wyn JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what safeguards his Department is considering to ensure that not all continuing care facilities will be provided by the private sector.
§ Mr. Mellor[holding answer 2 February 1989]: Our view is that a mixture of statutory, voluntary and private facilities is the best way of meeting the wide range of care needs of dependent people of all ages. We are considering the future organisation of care provision in the light of Sir Roy Griffiths' report.
