HC Deb 23 July 1993 vol 229 c499W
Mrs. Fyfe

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) what information he has on psychotic patients who have been discharged from hospital and found no bed available when they tried to return;

(2) how many psychotic patients seeking re-admission in each health board area have been sent to a bed-and-breakfast hotel because no hospital bed was available.

Mr. Stewart

The information requested is not cent rally available. No individual would be refused admission to a hospital bed where it is considered clinically necessary.
