HC Deb 16 November 1989 vol 160 c460W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, pursuant to his answer of 30 October to the hon. Member for Alyn and Deeside,Official Report, column 35, what information he has as to the cost of backlog maintenance for National Health Service properties in Wales for (a) each hospital and (b) each health authority unit; and if he will list those by health authority.

Mr. Grist

The information requested is not held centrally. District health authorities provide an annual return in which the backlog maintenance estimate is shown only as an aggregated total figure for the district. The detail requested could be obtained only at a disproportionate cost.
