Business question from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 November 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
Last night, I was contacted by an upset constituent, Mr. Nigel Anderson, about his wife who gave birth to a baby girl at the local hospital at 4.30 am, but was told that she would have to leave the hospital by 9 am that same day, despite the fact that she was in distress and wanted to stay overnight. I understand that the local hospital used to have four maternity wards, but now has only one. Will the Leader of the House arrange for the Secretary of State for Health to make an urgent statement on what seems to be an appalling situation?
