asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what proposals he is now considering for the relocation of the Dreadnought Seamen's Hospital or for relieving the Greenwich and Bexley Area Health Authority of its operating costs.

No proposal for relocation of this hospital is currently under consideration. The costs of treating seamen are taken into account in the allocation of resources to the Greenwich and Bexley Area Health Authority, but I have not yet reached any conclusion on the suggestion put to me that special funding arrangements might be made.
