HC Deb 11 March 1994 vol 239 cc439-40W
Ms Jowell

To ask the Secretary of State for Health whether her Department provides national guidelines for minimum standards of comfort and hygiene in maternity units.

Mr. Sackville

No specific guidelines are issued, but a key objective for the national health service management is to create a clean, safe and healthy environment in our hospitals in which the community can be confident that it is receiving a quality service and the best health care possible.
