HC Deb 04 February 1993 vol 218 cc331-2W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will make a statement setting out the cost, the date, address and reasons for the decision of the Mersey regional health authority recently to purchase a flat in Liverpool; and if she will indicate the number of occasions upon which that property has been used so far, by whom, upon what dates, and for what purposes.

Mr. Sackville

I understand the Mersey regional health authority recently purchased a flat from its endowment funds. It is used to accommodate visitors for whom the region would otherwise have to meet hotel costs. My hon. Friend may wish to contact Professor Breckenridge, chairman of Mersey RHA, for further details.
