asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give details of long-stay mental hospitals currently approved for closure, or listed in strategic plans as proposed for closure before 1995, or indicated by health authorities as possibilities for closure outside the strategic planning period, listing the present number of in-patients in each case.
There is no regional strategic plan for Wales. The information by district is as follows. Although the strategic plans for Clwyd and Gwent have been approved, the separate consultation procedures linked to the closure of hospitals have not yet been carried out.
