Proceeding contribution from Nick Raynsford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NHS White Paper.


NHS White Paper

How can the Secretary of State, with a straight face, say that he opposes the culture of top-down bureaucracy and decisions being taken by politicians, when he himself, in the past six weeks, has stopped the implementation of a clinically led and agreed programme for improving health care provision in south-east London, which was going ahead until he stopped it? Does he now accept that his words carry very little force for those of us who know what his actions indicate?
