Proceeding contribution from Edward Timpson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Severe Winter Weather.


Severe Winter Weather

In his statement, the Secretary of State touched upon the steps that are being taken to ensure that health services are well prepared throughout this cold snap, but he will also recall that last winter, a number of A and E departments were forced to close because of the severe weather, including ones close to my constituency. What discussions has he had with the Department of Health to ensure that the emergency services, and particularly the ambulance service, are given robust support to ensure that they can continue to give a full service throughout this difficult time?
