WASHINGTON —Members of New Hampshire’s Congressional Delegation lauded the end of a Veterans Affairs plan that called for closing its community-based outpatient clinics in Littleton and Conway, leaving no clinic in northern New Hampshire. 

Many veterans in Coos County get medical services at the Littleton outpatient clinic. The plan, released in March, called for closing both the Littleton and Newport, Vt., outpatient clinics and transferring their services to a new multi-specialty outpatient clinic that would be built adjacent to I-91 in St. Johnsbury, Vt. The plan also called for closing the clinic in Conway.
