40. Mr. John Evans

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whan he last met representatives of the area health boards; and what issues were discussed.

Mr. Needham

My noble Friend Lord Skelmersdale has met representatives of the boards on a number of occasions. His discussions with them have covered a wide range of issues concerning the policy and administration of the health and personal social services in Northern Ireland including the progress of the boards in taking forward the reforms set out in "Working for Patients".
