HC Deb 08 December 1993 vol 234 cc276-7W
18. Mr. Eric Clarke

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the starting date of the proposed new Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.

Mr. Stewart

Lothian health board's acute services strategy, which includes proposals for a new Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, is currently out to public consultation. My right hon. Friend looks forward to considering the proposals in detail once public consultation is complete and the board has submitted its final plans to him for approval.
