Proceeding contribution from Andy Burnham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on NHS Redress Bill (HL).
NHS Redress Bill [Lords]
Again, Opposition Members are confused. There is a second stage complaints process in the NHS. The Healthcare Commission deals with that. However, if the hon. Gentleman wrote to the commission today with a complaint from a constituent, I am confident that it would write back and ask him whether he had first complained to the relevant trust and what its explanation was. If he took a complaint about a police force to the Independent Police Complaints Commission, its response would be the same. It would not deal with an initial complaint by an individual constituent.
