HC Deb 06 July 1989 vol 156 c270W
Mr. Nicholas Bennett

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what is the average time taken by each Welsh health authority to process cervical smear tests and provide the results for the patient and her general practitioner; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Grist

Information for 1988–89 is currently being collected by the Department from Welsh health authorities. I shall write to my hon. Friend once the results have been collated.
