The developing better services strategy announced by a previous Health Minister in February 2003 recognised the fact that, with the continuing trend towards an aging population, the need for appropriate fracture services was increasingly important. The DBS strategy therefore confirmed the role of Musgrave Park hospital as a regional orthopaedic centre whose services will continue to be enhanced. Plans are under way to provide in-patient fracture services at Craigavon area hospital and Antrim area hospital.

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for providing me with an opportunity to comment on waiting times and waiting lists in Northern Ireland. It would be true to say that people in Northern Ireland might think that they have a health service that, in some parts of Northern Ireland, has completely forgotten them. It is an entirely unacceptable system where people sometimes wait more than three or four years for a procedure such as a hip replacement, despite the fact that Northern Ireland has received the same amount of money as England and that, on average, the standard is 11 per cent. per capita above that for England. So, Northern Ireland has had the money, but it has not had the modernisation or the reform. At the same time, thousands of people are on waiting lists, not getting treated. That has to change. I announced yesterday that it would change, and next Monday we will bring forward proposals that will also impose sanctions on trusts that keep people on excessive waiting lists.
