Abstract
The London teaching hospitals' case for a larger slice of National Health Service (NHS) funds is gaining ground. The House of Commons Social Services Committee has already made a special plea on their behalf in its 1986 report on expenditure on the NHS. More money has been earmarked for Thames Regions in 1987–88 and 1988–89 and the formula on which the present policy of more equal allocations to English regions is based is under review.
