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


NHS White Paper

Yes, exactly. Last Thursday I was in Cumbria, and that is exactly what has happened there. The GP commissioners have collectively taken over responsibility for the Cockermouth community hospital. Instead of its being run down, as was intended, they have built it up as a base from which they are providing services for their area.
