Mr. Gareth Wardell
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish in the Official Report for each health authority in Wales, the number of persons infected with HIV; and if he will separately distinguish these numbers by age.
Mr. Grist
[holding answer 7 June 1990]: To safeguard confidentiality and in line with reporting procedure under the AIDS (Control) Act, actual numbers between one and nine—inclusive—diagnosed in individual health authorities are not published. Distribution by age is therefore shown for all Wales.
