37 Mr. Yates asked the Minister for Health the average number of medical, surgical and long stay geriatric beds occupied in the period 1 November 1993 to 1 February 1994; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
I am having the acute hospital occupancy data for the period in question compiled by my Department and I will forward it to the Deputy shortly. Data for long-stay geriatric units are collected on the basis of an annual survey and details for 1993 are not yet available.
