Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 March 2006. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.
Department of Health
Like north Staffordshire, Gloucestershire is reeling from the revealed scale of the cuts—in our case, funding cuts of £20 million for the foundation trust and saving plans across the three PCTs of £30 million. Will the hon. Lady accept that at least part of the cause of the abruptness and scale of the cuts, which have left both our counties reeling, is the fact that they have occurred shortly before the start of the coming financial year? The funding formulae and mechanisms imposed by the Department of Health must therefore be largely to blame.
