Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 March 2006. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.
Department of Health
Does the right hon. Gentleman share my concern that strategic health authorities and PCTs trying to remove the deficits will seek soft targets for cuts and that that will put even more pressure on hospice budgets? The average children’s hospice gets only 5 per cent. of the funding it needs from those sources, and Little Havens in my constituency gets only 1.8 per cent. Will he do all he can through his Committee to bring pressure to bear on the Government to tackle the hospice funding formula?
