HC Deb 01 February 2000 vol 343 cc556-7W
25. Mr. Fabricant

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the future provision of services currently available at the Lichfield Victoria Hospital and the Hammerwich Hospital in South Staffordshire. [106262]

Yvette Cooper

The hon. Member will be aware that South Staffordshire Health Authority is currently undertaking a wide ranging strategic review of services. I understand that the Health Authority is still working-up proposals, and as such it would not be possible for me to comment at this time on the future provision of services at Lichfield Victoria Hospital and the Hammerwich Hospital.
