Proceeding contribution from Lord Lansley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 4 April 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NHS Reform.

NHS Reform

I am afraid the hon. Gentleman is wrong on a number of counts. First, we have listened and we will continue to listen. Secondly, of course there are costs in reducing the number of managers in the NHS, but it is absolutely essential that we reverse the decade of declining productivity in the NHS that took place as the number of managers went up by 78%. How can that be the right way forward? Under Labour, we had more managers and less productivity.
