Mr. Darling

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he proposes to make additional funds available to health boards to ensure that hospital operations postponed because of the Gulf crisis can be carried out within a reasonable time; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

Health boards have been promised that the full cost of treating Gulf casualties will be met. The resources available to them for treatment of their catchment population will continue to be available for that purpose.
