Proceeding contribution from Howard Stoate (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 July 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Access to NHS Services.
Access to NHS Services
Does the hon. Gentleman share my view that it is far better to have planned reconfiguration of services resulting from a proper discussion on where is the best place to provide them, rather than adopting a practice-based commissioning approach—under which some hospitals might end up doing things that were not necessary and others would inevitably wither on the vine—in a completely unstructured fashion, with almost no control for local people? Surely that would be the greater evil by far.
