London Nhs Reports And Strategic Documents

EDM number 940 in 2009-10, proposed by George Galloway on 25/02/2010.
Categorised under the topic of Health services.

That this House notes with alarm the series of recent published and leaked reports from NHS London that propose unprecedented cutbacks in NHS services across London; further notes that the Health for North East London Pre-consultation Business Case published in November 2009 details plans to cut more than 800 hospital beds, to provide a £6 million allocation for staff redundancies and to reduce hospital budgets by £500 million by 2017; further notes that plans leaked to the BBC on 10 February 2010 detail the reduction of accident and emergency services to just three major centres across the whole of North West London; further notes that leaks from South West London NHS and South East London NHS point to similar drastic cutbacks and closures; and therefore demands that the Government ensure that all relevant strategic documents and reports relating to the future of National Health Service provision across London are published forthwith, to allow proper public and parliamentary scrutiny of what is proposed.
