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


NHS White Paper

May I tell the Secretary of State that north-east Lincolnshire has developed an effective care trust plus, which worked with the local authority to link care and health in exactly the way that he proposes, but the effect of his proposals on that trust will be to deprive it of most of its functions and cause it to issue redundancy notice to most of its staff. Has he heard of the old adage, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"?
