Mr. McQuarrie
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, in view of the concern in the burgh of Fraserburgh at the decision of the Grampian health board to re-designate 10 acute hospital beds at Fraserburgh hospital to geriatric beds, if he will ensure that no action is taken on this matter until full discussions have taken place between his Department and all parties concerned.
Mr. Fairgrieve
No. This is a matter for the health board to decide and it is at present in consultation with local interests.
