Mr. Boateng

A report, "The cost-effectiveness of the regional trauma system in the North-West Midlands" was published in March 1996. It was made available to health authorities and National Health Service trusts to help inform their decisions on the organisation of accident and emergency services. Copies are available in the Library.
