HC Deb 27 June 1990 vol 175 cc248-9W
Mr. Corbett

To ask the Secretary of State for Health whether specific additional funding will be available to meet the cost of implementing health and safety measures in hospitals as required by recent changes in the law.

Mr. Dorrell

Resources to enable health authorities to meet their responsibilities under health and safety legislation are included within existing financial allocations. The level of expenditure is for individual authorities to assess in the light of their own local circumstances.
