Proceeding contribution from John Pugh (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NHS White Paper.


NHS White Paper

The coalition agreement pledges to introduce true local democratic accountability through citizens actually being elected on to a health board. What can the Secretary of State do to persuade me—because he has not so far—that we will have local citizens, not doctors, making any decisions about the shape and configuration of local NHS services other than in public health, and will any of them be consulted about his structural changes or allowed to do things differently locally?
