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


Department of Health

I made a noise when the hon. Lady blamed NHS managers, because that is all we hear from Ministers. The problem is systemic, and Ministers—not chief executives or civil servants—must take responsibility for the state of the NHS. The hon. Lady’s constituents and others will see thousands of jobs go, and they will not think it acceptable to blame the situation on poor management when those managers are appointed through the centralised system set up by this Government.
