Proceeding contribution from Gordon Birtwistle (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 31 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

I do not remember in the 2005 Labour party manifesto the ““Meeting Patients' Needs”” programme that closed the A and E unit and the children's ward in Burnley. Do not start getting on to us about what we are and are not closing. The right hon. Gentleman closed those things. Does he agree that what he did was a disgrace to the people of Burnley?
