HC Deb 15 March 1991 vol 187 c696W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many people in the health authority area in Powys are awaiting surgery.

Mr. Nicholas Bennett

Under existing arrangements, information is collected about the number of people waiting for treatment at hospitals but not about their area of residence. From 1 April 1991, waiting lists become the responsibility of the health authorities of the patient's area of residence and, in time, published information will reflect this.
