Community Hospital Facilities
EDM number 2225 in 2005-06, proposed by Graham Stuart on 22/05/2006.
That this House welcomes the commitment to community hospitals in the recent Health White Paper, Our Health, Our Care, Our Say; further welcomes the statement that `community facilities should not be lost in response to short-term budgetary pressures that are not related to the viability of the community facility itself'; expresses concern that many community hospitals remain under threat of imminent closure; supports the ongoing work by Community Hospitals Acting Nationally Together to raise awareness of and campaign against these closures; and calls on Ministers to allow a debate on community hospitals to be held in Government time on the floor of the House.
This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs.
