Proceeding contribution from Meg Hillier (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 May 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Secretary of State for Health.
Secretary of State for Health
The Conservatives seem to be confused about the role of the Secretary of State. The Government should make the hard decisions about future funding and stability for the NHS and set tough targets, but they should leave the practitioners to run things. The Conservatives keep raising individual examples of particular treatments. Is it really the Secretary of State’s role to determine what happens in every hospital ward?
