Proceeding contribution from Chloe Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Out-of-Hours GP Services.


Out-of-Hours GP Services

I regret to report to the House that my constituent Mrs. Marjorie Alderson had a difficult experience with out-of-hours care. I am particularly sad to say that she has since passed away, but her daughters have been active in highlighting the difficulties faced in Norfolk. I would particularly appreciate the Minister's reassurance that he will look seriously at what it takes to attract doctors to work in the out-of-hours service. I have had various comments from medical professionals to suggest that that is a particular difficulty.
