To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will visit the Deeside physically handicapped club at the Melrose centre, Shotton.

I have no plans to do so.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on his policies concerning the physically handicapped and their social and physical needs.

Advice and guidance on services for people with physical and/or sensory disabilities was issued on 8 May 1990 to all local and health authorities in Wales, and on 7 November 1991 those authorities were sent further advice in the Welsh Office "Protocol for Investment in Health Gain: Physical Disability and Discomfort: Physical and Sensory Disability". Copies of both documents are in the Library of the House. Local and health authorities are required to take them carefully into account in the preparation of their social care plans and local strategies for health.
