To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) how much funding was provided for special care baby units in Scotland for each year since 1979; and if he will make a statement;(2) if he will list the location of each special care baby unit in Scotland; how many places are available in each unit; and how many patients are redirected from Glasgow special care baby units when places are full.

Health boards meet the capital and revenue costs of special care baby units from within their normal allocations. The table lists the average number of available staffed special care baby unit beds in Scotland at 31 March 1990. Information on the number of redirected patients is not held centrally.
