Proceeding contribution from Heidi Alexander (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Breast Implants.


Breast Implants

Yesterday, I was contacted by a constituent who had PIP implants inserted by the Harley Medical Group in 2006. She said:"““There is so much conflicting information at the moment, I feel as though I'm being pushed from pillar to post. To add absolute insult to injury nobody is keen on helping us, they are saying the NHS should help…or they say they will perform the procedures on us for an extra fee.””" Can the Secretary of State tell me precisely what further representations he will be making to private providers to ensure that all women get access to the advice and treatment they need?
