Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 November 2007. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Health and Education Debate on the Address.


Health and Education

From Reform. Estimates from a Government report suggest that 10,000 lives are lost each year because of the failure of the NHS to deliver the European average on outcomes for cancer care. Of course, that must be coupled with last year's 6,500 deaths from hospital-acquired infections. At a time of such record spending, those deaths are not something of which the Secretary of State or any Labour Member can be proud.
