Proceeding contribution from Kevin Barron (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 March 2006. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.


Department of Health

Yes, I agree entirely. A lot of NHS budgets are still historically based. I have looked at the issue over the years that I have been a Member. We still do not have budgets that reflect the activity needed to look after patients in different areas, and we never will if we do not know the costs of the NHS. There are some big issues.
