§ Chris GraylingTo ask the Secretary of State for Health how many beds there were in acute hospitals in London in each year since 1997. [133748]
§ Mr. HuttonInformation on the numbers of beds by ward classification is collected for each national health service trust and not by individual hospital site or type of hospital. Information on the number of beds is published annually and is available from the Department's website at http://www.doh.gov.uk/ hospitalactivity/.
Up to 1999–2000, this information was also published in paper form in Bed Availability and Occupancy: England, copies of which are available in the Library.
