Mr. McTaggart asked the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) what works are to be included in phase 2 of the building of Glasgow Royal infirmary; when this phase is expected to be started; and when it is expected to be completed;
(2) what foundation work, if any, was carried out for the proposed new Royal Maternity hospital during the building of phase 1 of the Glasgow Royal infirmary;
(3) when he expects foundation work on the proposed new Royal Maternity hospital in Glasgow to be completed; whether the remainder of the building work is to be carried out by the same contractors; when the remainder of the building work is to be started; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Fairgrieve: Phase I of the redevelopment of the Glasgow Royal infirmary, which is expected to be completed by the end of 1981, includes a deck and foundation for the proposed maternity unit.
Phase II of the redevelopment, which consists of a new maternity unit to replace the existing Royal maternity hospital, is on the provisional list of schemes in the major capital building programme for the National Health Service in Scotland announced in May 1977. The inclusion of schemes on the provisional list is intended to allow preliminary planning to proceed; it does not, however, commit resources to the scheme; and questions of contractors or of starting or completion dates for this phase do not yet arise.
