Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Robinson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Hospital Trusts (Essex).

Hospital Trusts (Essex)

Today, in the light of the inclusion of University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust in the 12 trusts that were analysed, I spoke to its medical director, Dr. Richard Kennedy. He had taken great exception to the findings of Dr. Foster, particularly those in respect of the standardised mortality ratio. The hospitals had provided Dr. Foster with amended data a month ago to conform with the new arrangements that were being sought, but the Dr. Foster organisation had chosen not to take any notice of those data or to include them in its findings. Will the Secretary of State take that up with the organisation, and ask why it happened?
