To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the level of funding to the North Western regional health authority.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Funding for the North Western regional health authority for 1989–90 is £1,238.710,000. This is an all-time record, representing a real terms increase of 33 per cent. over 1978–79, compared with 30 per cent. for England as a whole. Revenue and capital allocations for 1990–91 will be notified to all regional health authorities after the Autumn Statement.
