HC Deb 04 February 1991 vol 185 c20W
Mr. Alex Carlile

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what provisions have been made in hospitals in Wales for the priority admission and treatment of any Welsh service personnel who may be wounded in the Gulf war; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholas Bennett

Appropriate plans have been made for the NHS in Wales to play its part in the treatment of Gulf war casualties. The central priority is to transfer the wounded from their point of arrival in the United Kingdom to appropriate hospitals as quickly and effectively as possible.
