Proceeding contribution from Baroness Keeley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill (Programme) (No. 3).


Health and Social Care Bill (Programme) (No. 3)

Before we get into any more claims of more being spent, I want to touch on two examples of cutbacks, caused by the cuts and efficiency savings, which I raised with the Minister of State, Department of Health, the hon. Member for Sutton and Cheam (Paul Burstow). The most deprived ward in my constituency is losing its NHS walk-in centre and all the people with long-term conditions are losing active case management. I raised those two cuts made by Salford PCT with the Minister in an Adjournment debate, to which I have received no answer. There is no answer. People in the most deprived wards with the greatest health inequalities are suffering from these cuts. I will not hear any more about more investment being made, because all I see as a constituency MP is less investment.
