asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give a breakdown by health boards of private clinics licensed for abortion operations; and if he will state, in each case, the owner of the clinic and its registered company address.

The names and addresses of the places approved by my right hon and learned Friend for the purposes of section I of the Abortion Act 1967 are as follows. Information on ownership is provided to my right hon. and learned Friend by applicants for approval but this information is not intended for publication. The hon. Member should approach the approved places direct for this information.
