Business of the House

Last week, we had the devastating coroner's verdict from the inquest on my constituent, Dr. John Hubley, who died as a result of ““a catalogue”” of failures at the Eccleshill independent sector treatment centre, described by the coroner as ““mickey mouse”” and ““a recipe for disaster””. Already, I have written to the Secretary of State for Health to ask for a full public inquiry, but as this matter has thrown up the issue of safety at independent treatment centres such as Eccleshill, will the Leader of the House find time for a debate on this to restore some confidence among my constituents, but also among the wider public, that it is appropriate to send NHS patients to that centre?
