HC Deb 02 March 1992 vol 205 c11W
Mr. Robin Cook

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what were the in-patient and day case activity figures for the first six months of the current financial year for each national health service trust; and if he will provide comparable data for the previous three years.

Mrs Virginia Bottomley

In all NHS trusts the number of patients treated in the first six months of the current financial year was: in-patients 536,425, day cases 140,812. This information is provisional only as it has not yet been validated.

Comparable information for the previous three years for individual units is not available. However, in all NHS trusts the number of patients treated in the first six months of the last financial year was: in patients 516,129, day cases 120,078.

Mr. Robin Cook

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what were the in-patient and day case activity figures for the 75 directly managed units, showing the largest increase in activity rates in the first six months of the current year; and if he will provide comparable data for the performance of these units in the previous three years.

Mrs Virginia Bottomley

This information is not collected centrally.
