Mr. Andrew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what were the running costs of the blood service in(a) 1993–94 and (b) 1994–95; what is the estimated outturn for 1995–96; and how much they are forecast to be in the next three financial years. [15651]

Mr. Horam

The costs of 1994–95 are estimated to be £153 million. Details of the expected out-turn of the national blood service for the years 1995–96 to 1998–99 are set out in the document "Plans for the Future of the National Blood Service" of November 1995, copies of which are available in the Library. The figure for 1993–94 is not available because the costs of the blood service were not identified separately in NHS summarised accounts.
