Proceeding contribution from Andy Burnham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 February 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Mid Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust.


Mid Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust

That is a very important piece of work, which is why I said in my statement that Professor Sir Bruce Keogh is already making progress on it. However, it is very important for the voices of the royal colleges, other professional bodies, and organisations across the health care world to be listened to in that work. When it is produced it will succeed only if it has support from, and is owned by, all those bodies. We will do this as quickly as we can, but in producing an HSMR measure in which the whole system has confidence we might need to take time to ensure that we carry out those discussions with all those concerned.
