Health Boards

Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the names of the general managers, chairs and board members and their correspondence addresses for each of the health boards in Scotland. [1187]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton [holding answer 28 November 1995]: As the information requested is lengthy, I have arranged for copies of the lists to be placed in the Library of the House.

Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what discussions his Department had with the officials of Greater Glasgow and Borders health boards relating to their under-drawing of their budgets for 1994-95; and what representations their boards have made in relation to these surpluses being carried forward into the current financial year.[4470]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton: Officials in my Department have had frequent discussions with officials of Greater Glasgow and Borders health boards relating to under-drawing of budget for 1994-95 and these

discussions are continuing. The final amounts to be carried forward into the current financial year have not yet been agreed but the boards have made representations seeking to maximise the carry-forward amounts within the normal operating rules. The final figures will be determined soon.

Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the budgets for 1995-96 for each of Scotland's health boards; and if he will indicate for each board the percentage charge on the budgets for 1994-95.[4471]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton: The information is set out in the table.

Note: The figures report basic revenue allocations which are based on weighted capitation requirements with adjustment for moves to funding parity. Additionally Boards receive allocations for capital charges and to meet a range of service specific costs. These include, for example, the costs of nurse education and training, the additional costs associated with the teaching of doctors and such allocations reflect actual costs and will vary from Board to Board.


Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, pursuant to his answer of 23 November, Official Report, column 318, how much of the surpluses in the budgets for 1994-95 of Borders health board and Greater Glasgow health board were not transferred to the current financial year's budget for these boards. [4473]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton: The provisional figures provided in the previous answer of 23 November have still to be finalised and therefore no transfer of funding to the health boards has yet taken place. It is anticipated, however, that all of Borders health board's surplus will be transferred but that £1.837 million of Greater Glasgow health board's surplus will not be transferred as this element relates to a ring-fenced capital allocation underspend which is not available for carry-forward purposes.

NHS Trusts

Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the names of the chief executives, chairs and executive and non-executive directors and the trust correspondence addresses for each of the NHS trusts currently in operation in Scotland. [1188]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton [holding answer 28 November 1995]: As the information requested is lengthy, I have arranged for copies of the lists to be placed in the Library of the House.

Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the budget for each of Scotland's NHS trusts for the 1994-95 financial year indicating the surplus or deficit declared by each NHS trust; and if he will list the budget for each NHS trust for 1995-96 indicating the percentage change against the previous financial year. [4472]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton: The information is set out in the tables. The surplus-deficit and total income figures for each trust in 1994-95 have been taken from the 1994-95 NHS trust annual accounts. The 1995-96 total income figures have been taken from the latest financial monitoring returns provided by each trust.
