Proceeding contribution from Simon Burns (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 January 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Emergency Care.
Emergency Care
If the hon. Lady is correct in saying that the clock starts when the call commences—presumably we are talking about the call from the member of the public to the ambulance service—how can there be a level playing field, given that some people may take three minutes to explain the problem about which they are ringing whereas others may take just half a minute?
