HC Deb 13 December 1994 vol 251 cc600-1W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will direct health districts to move to the provision of single-sex wards; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Richards

Hospitals are already required to provide services which take account of an individual's privacy and dignity. The issue of single-sex wards is one that my right hon. Friend and I will consider when the present edition of the patients charter for Wales is reviewed.
