HC Deb 18 July 1990 vol 176 cc592-3W
Mr. Gareth Wardell

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish for each family practitioner committee in Wales the budget his Department has allocated to it for the current financial year.

Mr. Grist

About 90 per cent. of the financial provision for family practitioner services is not cash limited and not subject to allocation. However, each family practitioner committee is responsible for managing two separate cash allocations. Each has an allocation to meet their current revenue administration costs. A further cash allocation has been delegated to FPCs towards the costs of practice staff employed, and premises improvements undertaken, by general medical practitioners.

The cash limits issued to FPCs at the outset of this financial year are detailed in the tables.
