§ Ms JowellTo ask the Secretary of State for Health how many renal dialysis machines there are per health authority; and how many renal patients on dialysis there are in each health authority. [8500]
§ Mr. HoramThe information is not available centrally in the form requested. However, the number of haemodialysis stations in hospitals in each national health service region for 1993 is contained in the "National Review of Renal Services Part 11; Evidence for the Review". The number of renal patients on dialysis in each NHS region in 1993, by renal unit, is shown in the same document. Copies of the report are available in the Library.
