§ Mr. Barry JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will establish a public inquiry to ascertain the factors underlying the refusal to treat the two children of Mrs. A. Griffin whose case is currently before his Department at the Breakspear hospital. [30164]
§ Mr. RichardsThis remains a matter for Clwyd district health authority. The authority is undertaking an investigation under independent chairmanship into the conduct of the officers concerned with the referral requested by Mrs. Griffin. I understand that Clwyd district health authority has made an offer to Mrs. Griffin, for an independent paediatrician appointment through an NHS consultant of her choice. That offer remains open.
