Proceeding contribution from Lord Lansley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 November 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Health Care-Associated Infections.


Health Care-Associated Infections

The Government claim, rightly, that there have been 250,000 extra staff in the NHS, of whom 107,000 have been administrators. How many have been cleaners? Does the hon. Gentleman understand that on wards at Maidstone at the time that the infections were occurring there was access to cleaning for two hours a day twice a day. That is all that was available.
