HC Deb 27 June 1995 vol 262 c567W
Mr. Wareing

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many representations she has received opposing proposed changes to the Liverpool blood transfusion centre. [31137]

Mr. Sackville

Ministers have received 88 letters about the National Blood Authority's proposals for the Liverpool blood transfusion centre since August 1994. In addition, there have been two early-day motions and one parliamentary question relating to the proposals for the Liverpool centre. This is in addition to other representations covering wider areas which include Liverpool.

Mr. Wareing

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will make a statement on the proposed changes to, and the future of, the Liverpool blood transfusion centre. [31139]

Mr. Sackville

This is a matter for the National Blood Authority. We expect it to make its revised recommendations for the organisation to the National Blood Service shortly.
