Dr. Fox: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many people were waiting for cardiology operations in (a) the quarter ending March 1997 and (b) the latest available quarter in each health authority in England. [61459]
Mr. Hutton: The table below shows the number of patients waiting for elective cardiology admission by Health Authority as at 31 March 1997 and 31 March 2002.
The total number of patients awaiting cardiology operations has increased by 5,662. In the same period, the number of cardiology episodes increased from 177,304 in 1996–97 to 255,998 in 2000–01.
(78) This data is consistent with the Department's statistical press notice of 10 May 2002 about end March 2002 waiting list/times. However, some of the figures may change slightly when final details about the end March position at Royal United Hospitals, Bath become available.

Of the 8 primary care trusts in Derbyshire, only Central Derby Primary Care Trust was operational in 2000–01. The total expenditure, or gross operating cost, of the primary care trust for that year was £70.08 million. Total expenditure figures for 2001–02 and 2002–03 are not yet available.
For each of the three years, the Department has made allocations to health authorities, and health authorities have subsequently made allocations to primary care groups and primary care trusts within their area.
Table 2 shows the allocation and distance from target in 2000–01 for the 9 previously existing primary care groups (PCGs) in Derbyshire. All of the primary care groups became part of primary care trusts in 2001.
