Proceeding contribution from Jason McCartney (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 March 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on National Blood Service.


National Blood Service

I thank the Minister for clarifying that there will be no sell-off—no privatisation—of the national blood service. Some Opposition Members are concerned that if there was some privatisation there would be a drop in donations, which is something that no one in the House would wish. Hopefully, Members on both sides of the House can now pass on that information, so that there is confidence in the national blood service and we see an increase in donations. We welcome the efficiency measures as well.
