HC Deb 14 October 1996 vol 282 c755W
Mr. Sheerman

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what research is being carried out with regard to the allocation of funding in NHS health trusts. [40182]

Mr. Horam

Any research into the allocation of funding within national health service trusts is a matter for the individual trust concerned. Trusts are not funded directly by the Department but from contracts with purchasers.
