HC Deb 27 November 1991 vol 199 cc538-40W
Mrs. Heal

To ask the Secretary of State for Health when he received a copy of the South East Thames regional health authority review of family planning and abortion services, August 1991; what action the regional health authority is taking to meet its recommendations; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Virginia Bottomley

A copy of the region's report was received on 12 August. I understand the regional health authority considered the report at its meeting in July and agreed that it should be issued and commended to authorities in the region. The region will ensure that purchasing authorities and family health services authorities take the recommendations forward in their purchasing plans. The region is also planning to discuss some aspects of the report with its local education authorities.
