HC Deb 09 May 1995 vol 259 c411W
Mrs. Beckett

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will make a statement on the relationship between housing and health. [22758]

Mr. Berry

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what estimate she has made of the level of NHS expenditure undertaken each year to treat ill health caused by poor housing conditions. [23186]

Mr. Sackville

Due to the complex interaction of a number of factors, it is difficult to quantify the effects of any one factor and to establish causal links between housing conditions and health.

No estimates have been made of national health service expenditure on ill health related to housing conditions.
