Mr. Haseldine
asked the Minister of Health what extra bed accommodation will be made available at Killingbeck Hospital, Leeds, when the new operating theatres are opened; and to what extent this will enable a speedier treatment of cases of open heart surgery.
Mr. K. Robinson
The new operating theatre will allow the separation of open heart surgery from other chest surgery. No additional beds are being provided but greater use will be made of the existing beds, which cannot at present be used to full advantage.
