Mr. A. Roberts
asked the Minister of Health what developments have taken place in the provision of a new mental hospital in the West Riding in the region of the Leeds Regional Hospital Board.
Mr. Powell
The Board proposes a new hospital for mentally sub-normal patients in the Wakefield area and will be considering its priority in preparing its long-term programme.
Mr. Roberts
Is the right hon. Gentleman aware of the location yet? Before the site is decided upon, will he have a geological report prepared?
Mr. Powell
