That this House notes with concern the decision by Powys Teaching Health Board to extend waiting times for Powys residents receiving treatment in English hospitals; further notes that Powys has no district general hospital and that many residents are therefore reliant on hospitals in Herefordshire, Shropshire and elsewhere in England for routine and specialist treatment; recognises reports that some patients have faced significantly longer waits for treatment despite capacity existing within the hospitals they attend; believes that healthcare should be delivered according to clinical need rather than a patient's postcode or the financial position of their local health board; also notes the principles set out in the NHS Statement of Values and Principles for Cross-Border Healthcare, which seek to ensure that patients living in border communities are not disadvantaged by administrative boundaries; expresses concern about the impact prolonged delays have on patients living with pain, reduced mobility and deteriorating health conditions; and calls on the UK Government, Welsh Government and Powys Teaching Health Board to work together to ensure fair, timely and equitable access to healthcare for patients in Powys and other border communities.

It is an enormous pleasure to follow my hon. Friend the Member for Gloucester (Alex McIntyre)—I call him my hon. Friend as he is a fellow member of the Health Committee.
The 2012 Act was mentioned earlier, and I am one of the few Members who was in this House when...

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, but the representations made by both the CQC and HSSIB itself seem to refer to its amalgamation into the CQC. The point is that, as he rightly says, a really important role is played by HSSIB, which could be lost as a result....

I welcome the Secretary of State’s statement and the manner in which he has been handling the issue. However, I want to ask him about the way he summarised the position at the end of his statement. He presented it as a choice between striking and having more jobs and...

The hon. Member is making a powerful case for reform and review. This morning, the Health and Social Care Committee was looking at the very issue of delayed discharge of medically fit patients. Does he not accept that we need more integration? If only a quarter of those delayed discharges...

In the far west of Cornwall, in a medical emergency we cannot look for additional support from the north, west or south, because it is sea. The urgent treatment centre at Penzance hospital was closed two and a half years ago, under the Conservatives, adding pressure to the only emergency...

Contrary to what the media are saying, today’s decision is not about bringing this Bill into law; it is about allowing it to go to the next stage. People may have misgivings, but the hon. Gentleman is making the assumption that the Bill cannot be corrected or amended in order...

I have three minutes and three quick points, on which I hope I have the attention of the Chief Secretary to the Treasury. My first point relates to the NHS. I welcome the introduction to the debate by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care today. Certainly the...

I will, although the right hon. Gentleman has only just walked into the Chamber, so I think it is rather cheeky of him.

I do, although that is rather rich of the right hon. Gentleman when he knows that he and his party left the country in this state.
Another issue is the housing emergency, which we have not debated much today. I welcome the additional £500 million that the Government announced, which will...

That this House notes with concern the lack of capacity for haemodialysis, particularly for paediatric patients, in rural communities; recognises that, as a result, patients are often forced to travel significant distances, sometimes up to two and a half hours three times per week to receive care; acknowledges the disproportionate impact this has on the education, mental health, socialisation and general development of paediatric patients; further recognises that, despite NHS England improving equity of access to haemodialysis treatment by providing free transport for patients in 2021, paediatric patients and their families remain disproportionately underprivileged; understands the likely impacts the cost of living crisis will continue to have on these patients and their families; and calls on the Government to support the work of organisations such as Kidney Research UK and the National Kidney Federation in helping to raise awareness, remove barriers to treatment and combat kidney disease.

On top of coming clean to the public and making a change from the way the previous Government treated the country, will the Secretary of State also assure the House that the Government will establish a proper, effective and honest workforce plan? After the years of Johnsonian bluster, when there...

I welcome the report. The previous Government left this Government with NHS and care services in the worst crisis in their history. The Secretary of State led by emphasising the decade of underinvestment; that needs to be coupled with pointing out the very weak workforce planning. When he meets the...

Like others, I welcome the report, but may I urge my right hon. Friend to reconsider the issue of safe staffing levels on acute hospital wards? I know that Robert Francis pointed to issues of culture and standards, but those are areas of interpretation and disputation. If we had the...

The Government’s position on the publication at ward level of safe registered nurse staffing levels is a welcome step in the right direction. My right hon. Friend will be aware that I have consistently argued for safe registered nurse-to-patient ratios at ward level, and no manner of enhancements of culture...

With the Serco contract for out-of-hours GP services in Cornwall having been referred to the Care Quality Commission, the manipulation of the data, falsely representing the outcomes of the service, has been identified. It is worth reminding the right hon. Gentleman that this was set up under a contract that...

I know I repeat myself, but adequate registered nurse-to-patient ratios are often at the heart of these failings, yet on page 68 of the report my right hon. Friend rejects the idea of any kind of national benchmarking or guidelines with regard to patient ratios. Will my right hon. Friend...

That this House commends the efforts of Macmillan Cancer Support in its campaign to abolish car parking fees for cancer patients; notes that 45 per cent of cancer sufferers are worried about fees and that the average patient pays £325 for parking over the course of their treatment; and calls on English hospitals to follow those in Scotland and Wales in removing or lowering parking charges for cancer sufferers.

Crucially, the report identified the problem of inadequate staffing levels, which often lies at the heart of care problems in the NHS. However, only recommendation 163 of the 290 recommendations mentions any action on that. Will the Prime Minister ensure that the Government bring forward stronger guidance to benchmark registered...
