Lord Vivian

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many surgical operations by category have been performed at the Royal Hospital Haslar during 1999; and how many have been carried out at the Military District Hospital Unit Frimley Park. [HL963]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

We do not at present collate data by category of surgical operation. For Royal Hospital Haslar, which is a directly managed unit, the table below gives details of patients, both Service and civilian, discharged by specialty. For the Ministry of Defence Hospital Unit (MDHU) at Frimley Park, the table shows the number of Service patients treated—whether by Service consultants or host trust personnel—under the terms of the MDHU agreement.
