Proceeding contribution from Ivan Lewis (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on General Practice (Northamptonshire).

General Practice (Northamptonshire)

I shall deal with that accusation head-on. In 2006-07, the allocation to the PCT increased to £730 million—a cash increase of 12.7 per cent. In 2007-08, it received £870 million, which is a further cash increase of 12 per cent. That is a cash increase of 26.3 per cent. over the two years 2006-07 and 2007-08, compared with a national average of 19.5 per cent. The funding formula and the funding system recognise that the hon. Gentlemen's constituencies have particular issues and challenges that must be addressed.
