HC Deb 26 January 1995 vol 253 c378W
Mr. Ainger

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what information has been made available to general practitioners in Wales about the availability of assessments and rehabilitation for patients with severe head injuries; on what date this was given; and in what form it was issued.

Mr. Richards

Only in a limited number of cases would general practitioners make such referrals. However, the Welsh Office has issued a series of protocols and technical documents which cover the type of care people with such injuries should receive. The protocol on "Physical Disability and Discomfort" was sent to family health services authorities in November 1991 and he protocol on "Injuries" in June 1992.
