Proceeding contribution from Stephen Hesford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 March 2007. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget resolutions.
AMENDMENT OF THE LAW
I am interested in what the right hon. Gentleman is saying. When he was in government, he could not untie that particular knot, in the sense that there are 80,000 more nurses and 20,000 more doctors than there were then. Does he agree with the public spending that brought about the advance in those numbers, or does he think that there should be cuts, which would damage that complement? Those increases did not take place under his Government, but they are in evidence now. How does he unscramble that?
