Nursing And Residential Homes

Mr. Pike

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list, by each appropriate local authority, the number of private nursing homes and private residential homes registered, and the number of beds involved.

For the latest available district health authority information, I refer the hon. Member to the summary booklet of private hospitals, homes and clinics statistics 1985, a copy of which is in the Library.Figures for residential care homes run privately (including those operated by voluntary organisations) are given in the table.
