§ Mr. CohenTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what allocations in the current financial year were made by the North West Thames health authority directly to reduce the projected deficit of the Wellhouse Trust; and if she will make a statement.
§ Dr. MawhinneyHealth authorities do not make allocations to trusts. North West Thames has however agreed to allocate £1.4 million to Barnet district health authority, the principal purchaser of services from the Wellhouse Trust. This is to enable it to increase the value of its contract for patient services during 1992–93.
